HI-STYLE HOLLADAZE
Haute off the presses!
Art Starts, 69 Vintage and The Deadly Nightshades are celebrating fashion community-building with HI-STYLE HOLLADAZE, a Stylebook launch and fundraiser for Art Starts' Style Council.
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 17TH -- 7-10PM
69 VINTAGE COLLECTIVE (1207 BLOOR ST. W. -- NEAR BROCK)
PWYC (suggested $4 donation gets you a copy of the stylebook!)
For the past ten weeks, ten emerging writers, stylists and photographers have been working together to document the collective fashion senses of the Dufferin-Eglinton and Oakwood-Vaughan communities. These style hunters not only hit the streets for the hoods' key trends, but filed interviews, essays and fashion editorials for a Stylebook that considers the impact of what we wear as an expression of ourselves and our communities.
