Fashion Splash 2024

​This past month has been nothing short of incredible in the world of fashion, thanks to the expanded reach of Fashion Splash, which covered three distinct municipalities this year. The festivities kicked off in the heart of the City of Victoria, where we hosted the exclusive VIP Splash pre-party and launched our online auction. This set the stage for a month of style, creativity and community engagement.
We then transitioned to View Royal for the next phase of our fashion extravaganza: the thrilling runway show. This was no ordinary runway show, but instead a celebration of local talent, innovation, and design. With over 11 designers presenting their unique items on the runway, it was a feast for the eyes and a testament to the creativity and talent that thrives on our Island.
Completing our fashion journey, we landed in Vic West for the final event: the Designer Art Market. This was where fashion met art, and the result was a stunning showcase of vision, craftsmanship, and style.
These events do more than just celebrate fashion. They serve a dual purpose of elevating Vancouver's emerging fashion scene and raising much-needed funds for the Victoria Women's Transition House. This year, we outdid ourselves, raising just over $6000. This was our most successful year ever, and we are immensely proud of this achievement.
We were thrilled to welcome over 220 guests at our events, making it the best-attended local designer show on the Island. The atmosphere was electric with excitement, admiration, and appreciation for the incredible talent on display.
None of this would have been possible without the tireless efforts of our dedicated volunteers. From those welcoming guests at the front door to the models strutting their stuff on the runway, the hair and makeup artists making sure everyone looked their best, the setup and takedown crew ensuring everything ran smoothly, and our gracious MC keeping the energy high - every single person played a crucial role in our success.
Fashion Splash is more than just an event; it's a testament to the power of community, creativity, and charity. We can't wait to see what next year will bring!
