THE VANGUARD

Inspired by the most fabulous fashionista red carpets, world music and global culture, this was Canada's international night of live Music and avant-garde Fashion showcased.

The Vanguard was an exclusive annual celebration for a night of healing and giving, centered in the heart of downtown, held at Toronto's historic grand venue of the Carlu.

The Vanguard is inspired by the world’s most coveted red carpets; this was a charity night of personal expression, haute couture, and uninhibited style in support of mental health wellness and community initiatives. This inaugural Launch event began as a preview for their bigger event in the Fall.

Glen Baxter, host of the event said “I am thrilled to be hosting The Vanguard Launch, the inaugural event benefiting mental health initiatives, an evening that was first-of-its-kind to bring out some of the city’s most fashion forward personalities, notables and creatives.

The evening began with a Famed Carpet, followed by the Savoir Faire After Party with special guests, Marieme, DJ Evalicious, and Sofonda.
