Fashion Resource Centre at Seneca

Fashion Resource Centre at Seneca A unique and stunning historical and vintage fashion collective. Over 15,000 items include ceremonial pieces, day and evening wear, and accessories.

Our Mandate is simple: "To Collect what Canadians have worn." In this respect, we are not restricted! This provides us with an opportunity to figure out the best place for a donation in our collection. For Example:
Is the item in bad shape? Perhaps we use it as a learning tool in construction classes. Was it made in another country? Then we have a real live example of how other countries how influ

enced Canadian fashion over the decades. Is it a duplicate? Then we look to expand that part of the collection in our Mens' and Childrens' sections. The possibilities are endless; and we look upon each item as unique and useful in its most likely form.
