Funded by the Government of Ontario as part of the Youth Jobs Strategy, and supported by the City of Toronto, #TFIFYF will begin with an 18-day fashion boot camp. Attendees will learn how to develop an accessory line, source materials, visit designer studios and learn about strategic business elements including: pricing, business planning, trade show prep, and critical thinking. From the boot camp, 10 top youth will be chosen to participate in phase two and produce a spring 2016 accessory collection with help from a mentor and a TFI micro grant. In phase three, the top three collections will be featured in TFI''s Press & Buyers Trade Show taking place October 21 and 22 at World MasterCard Fashion Week in Toronto.
"FASHION YOUR FUTURE is a fantastic new addition to TFI''s program portfolio," said Susan Langdon, Executive Director of Toronto Fashion Incubator. "It offers money, mentorship and market opportunities to youth interested in launching an accessory business. And it''s all for free!"
