In each graduating class, three truly remarkable students are awarded the Blanche Macdonald Centre Award for Excellence. Each recipient will receive a one-year mentorship program, access to the BMC staff and resources and a fully sponsored runway show at Vancouver Fashion Week.

Many contributing factors go into our selection process; performance, creativity, academic achievement, growth and a commitment to the craft of fashion design, to name a few. This year we had the privilege of nurturing dozens of fledgling designers, but these three sparkled so bright that they were impossible to overlook.

Showcasing at a major fashion week is a huge step into the industry, exposing each designer to countless editors, buyers and press from all around the world. For most designers it takes years and years to reach this level of professionalism but we are confident that these three ingénues will more than rise to the occasion.

Please join me in congratulating this year’s award winners: Ava Gruft, Bahar Kianpour and Jasper Cote!
