SOLIT at Vancouver Fashion Week:
In April, SOLIT will be doing their part to dismantle the status quo in the fashion industry, by presenting a show at the prestigious Vancouver Fashion Week.
They plan to showcase their lines on models with diverse backgrounds and disabilities, to really demonstrate the importance of inclusive representation on the runway and in broader society.
Growing up, I remember being unable to choose the clothes I wanted to wear, partly due to my body type and financial constraints. I had no option but very limited choices that were available to me. It felt as if hope for self-expression slipped out of my fingers. […] We at SOLIT, Inc. strive to help make this world come to life. Our main goal at Vancouver Fashion Week F/W 24 is not sales-oriented, but rather to connect with our allies who share and believe in the same values as we do, working to make our shared dream a reality. Fashion shouldn’t cause anyone harm. Rather, it should be the solution for our future.
