OFW has become an important event that celebrates creativity and innovation

Ottawa Fashion Week (OFW) is a platform for local and international designers and artists to showcase their work and talent. In February 2014, OFW will launch its 11th season, hosting an internationally recognized avenue of artistic expression.

Over the course of ten seasons, OFW has become an important event that celebrates creativity and innovation, while promoting the business of art, design and fashion. OFW continues to be successful in its mandate of uniting artists, consumers and industry.

Canada’s Capital Region is home to style-conscious individuals seeking new and innovative ways to experience fashion. Each season, designers taking part in OFW meet this demand by presenting collections that combine sophistication with creativity. As we embark on our 11th season, OFW remains true to the philosophy of promoting arts in the community by providing a creative outlet for all art forms, inclusive of photography, music and film. The pursuit of artistic expression in all its forms is a defining element in the success of Ottawa Fashion Week.

Ottawa Fashion Week is proud to partner with the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation in support of the Maplesoft Centre. Since opening its doors in 2011, local cancer patients and their caregivers have benefited from the Centre’s Cancer Coaching, Wellness programs, Workshops and Healing Therapies. Designed to engage, educate and empower, these programs improve quality of life throughout the cancer journey for patients and their families.
