by laurenonizzle via twitter 3/26/2011 9:00:18 PM- About - Mark Fast
Mark Fast is a 30 year old Canadian knitwear designer. He grew up outside the city of Winnipeg, in the countryside along a highway next to a forest. This minimal, peaceful lifestyle led him to wonder what life might be like beyond the familiar frontiers of Canada.
Fast has shown at London Fashion Week for the past few seasons, and has created a buzz in the fashion world for breaking with fashion world convention and regularly using average-size models.
For his AW11/12 collection Mark has designed several leather pieces that have been produced by Canadian leather goods company Danier. Mark travelled to Toronto to work at the Danier atelier on development and plans to work with them on a capsule collection to be released later this year.
