When you think of fashion schools which automatically comes to mind? If you are a Torontonian, Ryerson. A fashion follower, Parsons in New York City. Or for the true style junkie, St. Martin’s in London who’s most famous graduate – Alexander McQueen was discovered in their graduate fashion show. However most think of Humber College  (http://www.humber.ca) (or Slumber College as some people refer to it, hey I’m a Centennial grad.) as a second choice. They are out to change that this Thursday, April 15th at 6:30 p.m.

Students of the Fashion Arts Program will showcase the Grand Opening of the Humber Spa featuring“Walk It Out…Style Me A Future”.  It will be taking place at Humber College, North Campus in the “A” building, directly across from the new Humber Spa. The event will be showcasing three fashion shows, starting at 11:30am for local high school students, as well as two evening shows at 6:30pm and 8:30pm. Humber College has expanded their Fashion Institute to include the Cosmetic Management, Esthetician/Spa Management, and Fashion Arts programs.

The fashion show will be showcasing clothes from various up-and-coming Toronto designers, and it is sure to be an unforgettable evening. Pauline Ashworth, Program Coordinator for the Fashion Arts Program at Humber College says, “This event is a pivotal moment for the graduating class, who have spent the last two years diligently focusing on their studies. “Walk It Out” marks a final transition and an opportunity for the students to highlight their skills as they enter the fashion work force.” Because fashion is such an international business, the Humber Fashion program places an emphasis on retail operations from both domestic and international perspectives.

I really like this guide. Graphically it is inviting to read. Its parts are chunked into accessible bits of information that touches upon various dynamics of new media and HIV activism and education. Read the full story
