"RE\Collection is a visual experience of people being in hard times and having the creativity and determination to persevere and make really great work," - Tracy Austin, Studio Head, Fashion Design.![]()

What we’ll see in the 2021 Fashion Studio exhibition is an eclectic culturally and historically referenced mix of pieces that were created in 2020 for a Fashion Event wiped out by the pandemic. “These people took the hardship, put it on their backs, and kept marching forward,” she said about her student designers. You’ll see brand new lines, alumni work, and pieces created for the annual Fabricville Fashion Challenge plus work created by the 2021 grads for this spring. You’ll see a complete conceptual historically-informed fashion line created by a graduate, alumni work that is simultaneously tailored but contains Rococo-inspired details: ruffles, applique, and beading, Indigenous haute couture, and entries for the annual Fashion Challenge (in 2020: draping).![]()

Congratulations to Nate Gaffney on this incredible accomplishment.
"New Brunswick is Canada's best kept secret. We have a rich arts community that interacts and supports one another. This movie is a love letter back to NB in so many ways. Nearly everyone in the film, and all the crew are from here. All of our music is NB. All the art that decorates our sets are by NB artists. If someone is drinking from a mug or snuggling a blanket, those were crafted by NB artisans. A entire community contributed to the making of this movie, and the gratitude and sense of belonging run deep."![]()
