About this event
Your next collaboration starts with a conversation.
Before Vancouver Indigenous Fashion Week takes the runway, join the people bringing Indigenous fashion forward.
VIFW Industry Night brings Indigenous designers, industry leaders, sponsors, cultural partners and community together for an evening of connection, conversation and possibility. Taking place ahead of Fashion Week, it’s an opportunity to step away from your inbox, make introductions in person and explore what you could create together.
Whether you’re looking to build relationships, explore a potential partnership or connect more deeply with Indigenous fashion, this is a place to start.
More conversation. Less sitting on the sidelines.
This isn’t a seated dinner. It’s a standing, interactive reception designed to keep people moving, mingling and meeting.
Explore tasting stations, enjoy dinner included with your ticket and make time for conversations beyond a quick introduction. Come with a colleague or arrive ready to meet someone new.
Why join us?
- Meet Indigenous designers and connect with the wider fashion community.

Make the introduction. See where it leads.
A conversation can open a door to a new perspective, a creative partnership or a project you haven’t imagined yet.
Join us at VIFW Industry Night and be part of the conversation.
