FUSIONV was March 28, 2008, where urban met vogue, and it continues to do so on www.fusionurbanmeetsvogue.com.  A variety of designers: Couture Culture, Keko by Phillip, Hungry The Star, Vixen Couture, Nathan Dixon, Naz Swimwear, Royalz Wear, Tissh by Gloria Lee, and CC; they came together to show off their 2008 designs. 

All these fashion trendsetters are the buzz of Toronto's Elite Fashion Industry.  Their goal was to meet the mainstream eye, change looks, evolve style and create something original and innovative.  The founders who made the whole show come together were Morgan Model Management, Capital Entertainment Co., and Velvet Blue. 

The colours, tones, textures and fashion came together in a fun and exciting way.  It is the idea that urban meets vogue that attracts our eyes, but it isthe hairstyles that impressed me the most.  Every fashion statement needs an even more impressive hair statement. 

The faces of this fashion show were created by Tishawn (of Hair 2 Inc.) and Natasha Alana & Cassandra Wright (of Urban Hair Couture).  Also, check out the make-up, courtesy of Shawna Renee at www.shawna-renee.com.  Solarium sponsored FUSIONV was a great production, along with a lot of other great names; it rocked the fashion industry.
