The Designer and The Company Andréanne is a creative and down to earth Métis designer who studied international design at Montréal's prestigious LaSalle Fashion Design College. A year after receiving her diploma in Fashion Design, and with the help of Aboriginal Business Canada, she created her company under the label, MJAnne Couture.When creating her company, Andréanne was determined to seek out socially conscious retailers who valued comfortable, Canadian made eco-friendly clothing. Andréanne is currently the Board member representing Aboriginal Designers on the Apparel Human Resources Council, an organization serving the Canadian Apparel Industry. A Personal Touch: MJAnne is a combination of both ''MJ'', her twin sister's initials, and Anne, an affectionate nickname her family and friends call her. Most of her pieces are named after either her friends, family members or hobbies. The pride she feels for her Metis ancestry is revealed in her one-of-a-kind wearable art pieces, painted by Aboriginal David Albert, who signs and dates each unique pieces. |
