Ashtiani named winner at TFI’s New Labels (Image: George Pimentel)
Last week’s New Labels showcase at the Design Exchange brought out boldface retail names like Holt Renfrew ’s Natalie Lecomte, The Bay ’s Nicholas Mellamphy and TNT . Unlike LG Fashion Week, where buyers have seen everything months prior, this was a first look at emerging designer goods, and it prompted TNT to scoop up a selection. Coming this fall to the Yorkville retailer will be pieces from finalists Caitlin Power by Caitlin Power , Ashtiani by Golnaz Ashtiani and Narces by Nikki Wirthensohn . See each designer’s full collection after the jump.
Ashtiani may have won the $10,000 novelty-size cheque from the Toronto Fashion Incubator and an editorial package worth $40,000 from Flare Magazine , but each designer will be receiving immediate exposure, which is almost unheard of for most up-and-comers in this field. Will one of these designers be Toronto’s equivalent of a rapid-rising Alexander Wang ? It’s too soon to tell, but one thing is for certain: Ashtiani is likely making it rain, because she just fell into a cool ten grand.

This “free sharing” of infmoariton seems too good to be true. Like communism.
