On June 10th started the world’s first Canada Philippine Fashion Week in Toronto. This 6 day event celebrated Philippe Independence Day in style and Kol Hope foundation for Children was serving as the beneficiary of the inaugural launch.
This week was proudly sponsored by PLDT, Philippine’s largest telecommunications company, GMA International, Scotiabank, San Miguel, Philippine Airlines, Lexus Downtown, Shangri-La Toronto, Kevin Murphy and Max’s of Manila.
PLDT Canada Philippine Fashion week had a lot to offer. From an opening night party hosted by Lexus Downtown, to a fashion exhibit at The Thompson Hotel or a dinner of couture cuisine and cocktails, CPFW had something for everyone’s tastes. At the big fashion show at Roy Thomson Hall many local celebrities like Steven & Chris were in attendance and local fashion designers presented their collections which were later showcased at the new GotStyle in the Distillery.
Canada Philippine Fashion Week is a non-profit organization aimed at showcasing fashion, culture, creativity and artistry of Filipinos in Canada and the Philippines. With over 800,000 Filipinos in Canada alone, it also aims to enhance public awareness, image, and the rise of Filipino fashion on the world stage, and to open up the fashion trade between both countries.
