Runway? More Like Run This Way.
If you thought New Brunswick style was all Lululemon and lobster bibs, the NBCCD Fashion Show 2025 is ready to change your mind—and your mood board. On Thursday, April 17, the Fredericton Convention Centre will transform into a hub of sharp cuts, slow fashion, and coastal cool. It’s not just a student show. It’s a glimpse at Canada’s fashion future—and it’s happening east of Toronto.
Designers With Sass and a Sewing Machine
Expect bold collections from the graduating class of the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design, where “handmade” isn’t a trend, it’s a curriculum. These designers have been quietly perfecting their craft with the kind of precision that would make Paris weep—and now they’re ready for the spotlight. Think recycled textiles, gender-defiant silhouettes, and storytelling stitched into every hem.
Look Good, Do Good
Your ticket does more than score you front-row bragging rights. Proceeds from the night go toward two scholarships supporting current NBCCD fashion students. So while you’re applauding sequins and sustainability, you’re also investing in the next wave of homegrown design talent. This isn’t fast fashion. It’s forward fashion—with heart.
Craftsmanship With a Capital C
The show promises an immersive evening of artistry, innovation, and the kind of craftsmanship that makes mass-market look, well, mass. Whether you’re into avant-garde or minimalism, recycled tulle or deconstructed denim, there’ll be something on that runway to make your fashion brain do backflips.
Fashion, But Make It Fredericton
It’s not Milan. It’s not Montreal. But Fredericton’s got something the big cities don’t: raw creativity, fearless grads, and a sense of place that threads its way into every design. NBCCD is putting New Brunswick on the map, one runway moment at a time.
Needle Drop
Tickets are going fast—and so is the chance to say you saw them before they were famous. Book your seat, charge your phone, and prepare to be stitched to your seat.
