Modern Warrior: Power, Freedom & Identity
Contributing Author: Kylie Bradley
Each year, graduating students of the Fashion Arts and Business program at Humber College are selected to produce a fashion show exhibiting up and coming local talent and designers. This year’s show, Walk It Out: Modern Warrior, has been in the works since September and will make its debut on Tuesday, April 11th at Palais Royale. Students are divided into teams with different roles and responsibilities. These teams include Creative Design, Stage and Show Production. Backstage, styling, Promotions and Media. Lastly, Decor, Food & Beverages. Since it is Humber College’s 50th anniversary, the teams have been working together to create one truly memorable show.
Modern Warrior reflects three core values: Power, Freedom & Identity. This event brings together students, faculty, media, fashion insiders and industry workers on a night that takes the audience on a journey to find their inner warrior. The show will feature Canadian designers Copious, Joseph Tassoni, Angela DeMontigny, Stephan Caras, Christopher Paunil, and Wully Outerwear. The 2017 print edition of Infuse Magazine will also be unveiled and launched the same evening. Whether it be booking designers, promoting on social media or creating the setlist, every person involved has been working hard to create an event that no one will ever forget.
