Cristofer Carrado: Divine Tees
May 6th, 2010 | posted by Rachel S | Posted in T.O Designers
“The 7 Keys to Divinity” Collection by Cristofer Carrado is “fashion with a philosophical message. Each Key in the Collection represents a characteristic of becoming Divine. By wearing each symbol you are ultimately attracting this energy to you.”
I receive many e-mails from designers all over the world – but this, a practically heartfelt message from Toronto-based designer Cristofer Carrado caught my eye with all its talk of ‘law of divinity, attraction and energy…’
After an ambitious career in promotions and marketing, the then young Carrado was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer – a stumbling stone but detrimental point in his life that seems to have allowed him greater drive and passion. He moved to China to study textile and design, then returned to Canada, started C5, a children’s charity and the rest is history.
I’m personally not into wearing clothing with the designers’ name sprawled all over it, but I like these tees and the story behind them. Occasionally, Carrado auctions off outfits to raise funds for his charity.
