At the 2016 Rising Fashion Gala, a glamorous event signed Youth Fusion, collections of a hundred students from nine high schools walked down the runway in front of a renowned jury : Jean-Claude Poitras, Philippe Dubuc, Mariouche Gagné, Mélissa Nepton and Debbie Zakaib .

They impressed everyone with their creativity and professionalism ! Moreover, the winning collections will parade at the Festival Mode & Design this summer at the Quartier des spectacles in Montreal !

RISING FASHION is an educational program that introduces high school students to fashion design, in partnership with ALDO, Globo, Dynamite, City of Montreal , the government of Quebec and LaSalle College.
