Having already conquered Home and Planet, [FAT] took things back to the Gutter on Day Three.

Today, [FAT]'s artists continued to investigate the ideas and issues surrounding Home, Planet, Gutter, and Beyond. In response to Earth Day, I TTC'ed my way to the runway as a dozen designers left the comforts of Home and set out to explore the Planet.

Since its inception four years ago, Toronto Alternative Arts & Fashion Week has developed a weighty reputation as a legitimate and cutting-edge, um, alternative to LG Fashion Week. [FAT] emphasizes creation over commercialism, and inclusion over elitism, or so I've heard.

More than 200 independent contributors are set to explore the ideas of Home, Planet, Gutter, and Beyond through fashion, photography, dance, and music over the next four days. Starting out close to Home, I checked out the Distillery District's Fermenting Cellar to see if [FAT]shion Week could live up to its hype.
