Design Forward is an award created by Fashion Take Action to showcase Canada’s sustainable Fashion. For 2017, we have 10 semi-finalists, which they had to meet criteria of sustainability in area like fair trade, locally made, organic/sustainable or recycled fabrics, up-cycled or re-purposed, natural / non toxic dyes, zero waste and slow fashion in style.
10 semifinalists showcased 3 designs each, and 3 finalists will be chosen who will showcase on October 3rd at Expo for Design, Innovation & Technology and the winner will be announced.
Here are some of the highlights from the 10 semi finalists,
