Fashion is a powerful means of expressing one's identity, sense of place, and personal creativity. Throughout history, humans have adorned themselves with clothing, jewellery, and talismans to explore symbolism, beauty, and belonging, as our forms of living and presenting evolve.
At VIFW, we highlight how fashion can build connections with Indigenous values, wisdom, and history, becoming a powerful tool for the cultivation of strength and resiliency in Indigenous communities, as well as a vehicle for understanding and reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.
VIFW is committed to facilitating reconciliation through collaboration and dialogue about fashion, identity, story, art, and representation. Our fashion is Wearable Culture, and it unites artists, cultural creatives, leaders, and the curious in celebrating the stories inherent in the creation of each piece. Through showcasing the expression and evolution of Indigenous designers from across Turtle Island, VIFW bridges the past, present, and future of Indigenous resurgence in the heart of the city.
