Toronto Alternative Arts & Fashion Week [FAT]

Toronto Alternative Arts & Fashion Week, or [FAT] as it's known, will occur April 9 to 11, 2008. The schedule has been posted on the official website and it promises to be a very cool affair.

Held in the trendy Distillery District, [FAT] boasts over 120 artists for its third annual event.

The aim of [FAT], according to the press release, is to "take fashion back to its grassroots, showcasing the raw, gritty element of self-expression through cloth, that so many of the great underground designers in Toronto are exploring."

Seems to me like a [slightly] less pretentious event than regular Fashion Week. I still love it, though, and it brings another level of arts and culture to the city.
