walk for death

Love and Lin's two looks.

On Sunday night, Ottawa Fashion Week closed with a charity fashion gala for Africa's Children, Africa's Future. The gala was the inaugural event for Walk the Truth, a fashion campaign put on by the organization. 

Love and Lin
  I was lucky enough to attend because Stephanie Love, a close friend of mine, had been asked to create some clothing to donate to the charity for an auction.


Love and her design partner, Vivian Lin, created two AMAZING dresses. The details are impeccable on them.

Body jewelery by Li Li Sie.

They worked with jewelery designer Li Li Sie, who created a body chain vest and a wrist chain for the look.


I have never seen two people work so fast and hard in the 12 hours that they were at my house.
Lin and Love are two fashion design students at Ryerson University.

These are definitely two designers to watch out for in the coming years!


This whole event wouldn't be possible without charity co-founders Shaun Marq and Gita Jaffe. Dont forget to check out Walk the Truth and bid on a dress!

On a side not, is it bad that I have two papers due and an exam tomorrow and all I want to do is look at clothes and post some blogs? After all this insanity is finished in 24 hours, be ready for some new posts. I'll be making an announcement this Thursday about an exciting thing happening on Fashgasm, so don't forget to check it out.
