Takeaways:
Participating in a group fashion popup event can provide valuable knowledge and insights about your brand
Having control over the presentation and curation of your brand is important for maintaining brand integrity
The fashion scene in Toronto may not provide the same level of support and opportunities as other cities
Thinking globally and spreading your brand message beyond your local market can be beneficial
