Event LOVE: Passion For Fashion Awards @PassionFashion
A few of us gathered at the Toronto Fashion Incubator for the fourth annual Passion For Fashion Awards. It was an intimate evening that started off with a cocktail reception, where we all got to sip on cocktails, snack on hors d’oeuvres and talk fashion naturally lol. Then it was time for a presentation which featured the Passion For Fashion finalists, and the announcement of the winners of the Fashionista’s Den Competition.
some of the finalists
“Born from a partnership between two-cutting organizations, Passion For Fashion marries Youth Employment Services’ (YES) expertise in youth entrepreneurship with the Toronto Fashion Incubator’s (TFI) success in inspiring new fashion talent between the ages of 16-29…This exciting program gives youth the opportunity to explore the world of entrepreneurship in the fashion industry for free. “
LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE GLASSES BY AEON ATTIRE!
Congratulations to the all the finalists and to the winners for all their hard work, and all the best in making your fashion dreams/goals come true 🙂

Passion for Fashion is BACKKK @YesToronto
I hate that I’m always busy or out of town when the Passion for Fashion information sessions come around 🙁 For those of you that are starting a fashion business, want to start a fashion business or are just interested in the Passion for Fashion Program, I seriously advise you to attend these information sessions so that you can find out about the program, how you can benefit from the FREE (yes FREE) business workshops, seminars, mentorships with industry experts and hopefully make your fashion business dreams come true. You might even have a chance to enter the Fashionista’s Den Competition and win one of three cash prizes, which include the Passion for Fashion Award and Eveleen Dollery Award. I went to the award show about a year ago, and left wishing that I had participated 🙁 You only have to be between 16-29 years old, and you don’t even have to have any fashion experience. Doooo It.
