With Junior Walker’s funkified R&B hit “Shotgun” pumping it out, Dalyn Berryman’s vibrant mix and match pieces lighting up the catwalk, the Blanche Macdonald 2005 Design Grad show opened with a bang. And the fashion hits just kept on coming, as models strutted collections as individual as the Blanche Mcdonald Design grads themselves.

Inspired by the past and future, the candy store and kitchen, the boudoir and boarding, the high energy show had something for everyone. Many of the collections focused on environmental awareness, using natural and recycled or handmade fabrics.
