Fashion Art Toronto Open Air @ The Historic Distillery District Runway

Fashion Week runway programming continues at the Historic Distillery District as Fashion Art Toronto brings its Open Air series to one of the city’s most iconic cultural hubs. A dynamic lineup of outdoor runway presentations features Indigenous designers Ayimach Horizons and Wabanoonkwe, alongside the Lignes de Fuite (LDF) showcase spotlighting emerging French-Canadian talent.

Highlights include Ayimach Horizons, presenting a multidisciplinary collection exploring Indigenous futurism, land, and light through interconnected colour worlds, and Wabanoonkwe’s Nocturnal Rose — a couture collection rooted in Anishinaabe storytelling, featuring sculptural, beadwork-inspired florals.

The day is further energized by performances from the Tkoronto Music Festival, including Sara Kae and Logan Staats, alongside legendary DJ Blackcat, vogueing performances, and more.
