Mount Currie isnt exactly Paris or Milan when it comes to haute couture.
But fashion is unpredictable and as Madonna intoned in her 90s club anthem Vogue : beautys where you find it.
Intrigued local fashionistas can find it this Thursday evening at Xitolacw Community School, where designer Levi Nelson will be staging a fashion show with his own creations.
Titled Cat Fight , the show will use local models and be set to music by Marilyn Manson, The White Stripes, The Doors and Gus Gus.
Nelson describes the collection as "Pat Benetar meets Samantha from Sex and the City. Fashion for women who are confident and sexy and not afraid to flaunt it."
Currently living in Pemberton, Nelson is a former student of Torontos International Academy of Design. Thursdays show will be his first signature event.
The show is set to begin at 8 p.m. with admission by donation.
