Tuesday March 18
My day starts with a press conference—my first ever—featuring the Mayor of Toronto, David Miller; the head of the Italian Chamber of Commerce, and the Fashion Design Council of Canada (FDCC). They announce a new program to help further fashion design in Canada—bursaries for promising Toronto design students to study at design institutions in Milan. In addition to the bursaries, the city of Milan will provide approximately 12,600 dollars to the chosen graduates to cover their living expenses while in Milan.
These bursaries could have a very positive impact on fashion design in Canada, a point stressed in my mind as I discover later in the day that I’m a traitor to Canadian fashion—more on that later.
