The 6th edition of Fashion Preview is currently in the works and is scheduled from Monday October 24th through Wednesday October 26th as of 5:45 pm (shows starting at 6:15 pm) at UQAM’s Hydro-Quebec Agora and Chaufferie (175, President-Kennedy avenue, Montreal, Quebec, H2X 3P2). This edition will showcase local designers’ 2017 Spring/Summer collections. Fashion Preview has positioned itself as the new Montreal Fashion Week and aims to bring together Montreal designers with local and international buyers and media. Honoring Belgium, this edition will feature 3 Belgian designers, which is a great opportunity for international inspiration and discoveries.
Actually, the event will also be starting, in parallel, on Saturday October 22nd, at Leows Hotel Vogue’s Atrium where some designers will present their collections like Macha Thys (wool collection from Belgium), Anomal Couture (red carpet looks, from Montreal), Eve & Daphnee perfumes (now also sold at Maison Ogilvy).
Shopping Stands include Coton Mouton, Ella Dugre, Et le bijou crea la femme, Holdur, Maison Bourdon, Guillotine, L’Antichambre Parfums, la boutique en ligne Fibres Collectives et C’est Beau, le « Coup de cœur de Jason ».
Two showrooms will take place, one on October 25th and another one on October 26th from 9 am to 12:30 pm at Agora Hydro-Quebec for buyers so they can have a closer look at ready to wear collections.
One of the cool new things about this edition is the shows will be live streamed on social media! Here’s the complete list of scheduled runway shows and you can get your tickets here.
