Fashion Television, also known as Fashion Television Channel, was a Canadian English language specialty channel owned by Bell Media.
It was originally established in 2001 by CHUM Limited as a brand extension of the Citytv series FashionTelevision, airing programming related to fashion, modelling, photography, art, architecture and design. Under Bell Media ownership and after the cancellation of its namesake, the network abandoned its original format and shifted primarily to airing Bell Media library programming with little relevance to its original format.
Amid declining investments in the channel, Fashion Television shut down on February 21, 2021.
