Behind every club on campus, there is an exec team, but you've never seen one this stylish. With this school year coming to an end, I want to reveal the faces of our executive team of 2015/16. Keep scrolling to a glimpse of our backgrounds and interests!
It's been an eventful year- we carried traditions while introducing new ones: the Movember Fashion Show, Nuit au Noir Socializer, Mussels & Martinis Night, Victoria's Secret Screening, the annual fashion show <Deus Ex Machine/ God of the Machine>, and two very successful issues of VOLTA have all led us here at Fashion & Lifestyle Society to end off the 2016 school year on a fabulous note.
Thank you for being on this journey with us, we hope you enjoyed being a part of the FLS community, whether you came out to our events, or followed what we were up to through our online platforms. We can't wait to share what we have in store for you in 2016-17, with a brand new exec crew and new creative minds.
FLS is a community at Western that runs with each individual's passion and creative drive. It's inspiring to see ideas and hard work come to life. Thank you to the rest of the FLS exec crew for their hard work this year. Graduating execs and members, you will definitely be missed. I'd also like to shout an appreciation to my blogging committee who contributed to recreate this blog to what it is now. And today, I'm gladly passing the VP Marketing crown onto the next one in reign.
Take care during exams- wishing you all many 100s, and a lovely summer.
See you at clubs week in September!
