The Vancouver Chinese Cultural Centre was a whirl on Day 2 – the designers filled the runway with unique garments utilizing colours and materials that represent individuality. The music throughout the night consisted of multi-instrumentalist Bruno Mars, American pop rock band Maroon 5 and worldwide hit maker Kanye West. The variety of music had the crowd whirling and bumpin’ as heads were nodding to the many different tracks. Day 2 designers took off with amazing mixes from modern-day streetwear to beautiful designs for the everyday woman that go beyond your usual clothing store.
ENCIMA took the stage on Day 2 and gave the audience something to talk about! The newest collection from their contemporary menswear brand, based out of Vancouver, showcased their views on personal flare in fashion. ENCIMA was founded in 2015 with the goal to design and create unique garments representing individuality.
“We don’t all look the same, so why should we dress the same?”

RELENTLESS ended the second part of the show, bringing a new light to streetwear garments by using traditional Indian silhouettes and injecting them into modern-day streetwear, creating new exotic ensembles. Designers Sunny and Kevin’s cultural background and love for black and white art inspired this collection. With the choice of Kanye West soundtracks, RELENTLESS ended the second part of the show leaving the audience enthusiastic for the rest of the night.
