HIT PARADE

The 2010 Danier Design Challenge

For the second year in a row, Canadian retailer Danier has invited students from the Ryerson School of Fashion to design an original leather piece, with the winner receiving a $5,000 prize as well as having their piece for sale in select Danier stores. The top ten have been announced, and public voting continues until tomorrow. Make sure to head to danierdesignchallenge.com to see the talented young designer’s take on the classic leather jacket, and vote for your favourite. We’re coveting Robyn Gemzik’s Denis Gagnon-esque Danier Unzipped bomber and Jessica Tep’s studded The Modern Woman: The Urban Warrior biker jacket.
