Meet “glue,” a Vancouver-based fashion collective ft. Katie Vasquez, Thomas Lychee, and Zoë Macdonald. The three met in 2024 during their first semester of fashion school at the KPU Wilson School of Design, founding their collective in Spring 2025. Proud to announce glue as one of our official participating designers for The Vancouver Project showcase on August 30th.

We are proud to announce local designers - glue, Jackson Frazer (of Thank Euphoria) and Jugal Joshi as the three participating designers for The Vancouver Project runway competition on August 30th at JCI Institute.

Kicking off this overdue series with my favorite menswear destination in the entire city — Noisy Nest. Nestled in between Fairview/Kits area, this unsuspecting neighborhood is home to powerhouse streetwear with an emphasis on Asian brands and designers. I like to think I’m in the know with underground brands, but this shop consistently humbles me.

I met Tashinga back in November at the Held in Form x Noisy Nest launch party. Before I could compliment his fit, he complemented mine. If he looks familiar, it’s probably because you’ve seen him before. He’s modeled for Canadian fashion icons like Gravity Pope, HAVN, and DRMRS CLUB, to name a few. While he’s currently pursuing a degree in Criminology, he’s also been quietly teaching himself fashion design, with plans to release a small collection sometime next year.

The Fairfax is Dead Market:24 show was a huge success. We had around 200 attendees, 20 artists, and a diverse array of works from paintings and photography to mixed media art and fashion vendors. We brought together local community for art-gazing, networking, and meaningful conversation. So, a massive thank you to everyone who believed in this project, showed up, and helped make it happen.

Check out some of the pics from the event below, and stay tuned for more to come.
