Splash! Round-up

Tonight is Splash! We’ve been getting ready for what seems like forever, but the time has come.

Here’s what’s being said about Splash! around town:

Friday…is the wrap party presented by Latitude 53 in an abandoned building located at 10575 109 Street. Ooh, how exciting. They’ll have DJs and everything. Wine, too. Actually it’s the space once occupied by Donovan’s Fashions, which went out of business. The world of high fashion is a dog-eat-dog industry. —Gig City

Fashion fans of Edmonton should be aware of the Western Canada Fashion Week taking place from March 24–31, and they also know that the week isn’t over without a well-deserved afterparty. Fulfilling that important task is Splash!, a Fashion Week party and fundraiser hosted by the contemporary art gallery Latitude 53. I’m thoroughly stoked about DJ Jaycie Jace’s jams, the amazing food (clearly I’m a starving university student), and of course, the Finlandia vodka cocktails (again, I’m a university student). Oh and don’t worry — the April Fool’s pranks will be kept at a minimum. Probably. —The Gateway

Western Canada Fashion Week is on and, although I’m not modeling in it this year, I’m excited to see some of my friends who are designers showcasing their work. Not to mention getting a break from Uggs and Lulu due to this neverending winter weather. The week wraps on Thursday, but doesn’t really finish until the fantastic after-party [hosted by] Latitude 53. Hello, stylish, pretty people. —The Edmontonian

Advance tickets are gone, but we’ll have some more at the door. See you tonight at 8!
