Montréal, UNESCO City of Design

Montréal is a major hub of the fashion industry, one whose importance is evident on several levels:

• Thanks to fashion, Montréal is one of North America's three biggest production centres, alongside Los Angeles and New York.
• A true creative incubator, fashion has helped shape Montréal’s identity and the energetic atmosphere that characterizes the metropolis.
• Montréal boasts many high-level academic institutions on its territory and is one of the few Canadian cities to offer a university program in fashion.
