Annual TFS Fashion Show brings “Revival” to the Senior School
The annual student-led TFS Fashion Show took place on Friday, December 5, transforming the Senior School into an energetic celebration of creativity under this year’s theme, Revival.
The show guided the audience through five chapters: EDEN, DECAY, DEMISE, DREAM and REBORN, exploring a journey from past to present and toward a hopeful future.
What gave the night its deeper meaning was its charitable mission. All proceeds from the night will be donated to Create Change, a registered Canadian charity supporting girls in Ghana as they lead educational programs that help rebuild their communities. Although founder Shannen O’Brien could not attend the event in person, as she was in Africa leading the charity’s initiatives on the ground, she opened the show with a heartfelt video message, reinforcing the the night’s purpose: “When you create a female leader, you not only change her life, but you change the lives of everyone impacted by the change she leads.”

More than just a display of fashion, the event was a major collaborative effort, featuring the work of students and teachers across many areas.
