The Canadian Arts & Fashion Awards (CAFA), which recognises leading and emerging talent, has announced the nominees for its 2024 event, taking place in Toronto on October 19.
Often referred to as “Canada’s most fashionable night,” the awards launched in 2013 honour Canadian womenswear, menswear and accessory designers, as well as emerging talent, outerwear brands, fashion design students, models, stylists, make-up and hair artists.
There are also awards recognising brands and designers who are inspiring change in the fashion industry through sustainability and social or philanthropic impact.
All the accolades, except special honourees, which are bestowed, award categories are self-nominating, and a committee consisting of industry experts decide on the final nominees.
This year’s event will be hosted by Toronto drag artist and TV personality Brooke Lynn Hytes.
Vicky Milner, co-founder and president of the CAFA, said in a statement: “Congratulations to all 2024 nominees on this tremendous recognition of their talent and undeniable influence on the Canadian arts and fashion industry. We want to thank all of the brands and creatives who have taken the time to submit their applications this year and our generous sponsors for their ongoing support.
“Now, in our 11th annual edition, we continue to be so proud of the community we’ve built and amazed by the calibre of talent we have here in Canada. We are grateful for the opportunity to continue to spotlight these noteworthy people and brands and bring Canadian arts and fashion to the global stage.”
