Toronto Fashion Week starts next Monday. Yes, it’s now “officially” called Toronto Fashion Week. I’m looking forward to the Fall/Winter 2016 shows. Kind of. I don’t know. Many of my favourites are back (though Pink Tartan is NOT showing for some reason), including Hillary MacMillian and Triarchy and Greta Constantine will be closing the week […]

WMCFW Yays, Nays & Mehs: Spring/Summer 2016 Edition
Yes, back again with my wrap of World MasterCard Fashion Week. And due to a crazy schedule, I did not attend many shows this season either (or, at least, not as many as I could have). Yays: Star Wars: Loved the R2D2 shoes on display. The Force is definitely with us. Press and Buyers’ […]
Delicate, Floral Looks at Mikhael Kale
The first day of World MasterCard Fashion Week included designers such as Matthew Gallagher and Sid Neigum. However, I would have to say that the most interesting collection came from Mikhael Kale. For Spring/Summer 2016, his pieces had, as a press release put it, “a delicate, yet highly ornate” look with an “elegant seasonal transition […]

WMCFW FW15 Wrap-Up: Yays, Nays and Mehs
I’m actually not sure if I can really post one this season, since I only went to six shows over a period of three days (this is what happens when there are too many events on your plate. Ahhh… the life of a lifestyle blogger). However, I do this every season, so I’ll try my […]
VAWK Makes Triumphant Return to Fashion Week
After being absent for a couple of seasons, Sunny Fong made a return to World MasterCard Fashion Week Tuesday evening with not just one collection, but also a small capsule collection in collaboration with Subway. Yes, sandwich-inspired dresses, including two pieces that looked like lettuce. While that was mostly wearable art, his main collection was […]
Sid Neigum: Many Practical Shades of Neutrals
Sid Neigum, who won the 2014-2015 Mercedes-Benz Start Up competition last season, presented his collection Monday evening, the first night of World MasterCard Fashion Week. The models walked down the runway to a string quartet, wearing pieces which were a combination of very wearable pieces to ones which were a bit more artistic. The palate […]

WMCFW SS15 Wrap-Up: Yays, Nays and Mehs
Here we are again at the end of World MasterCard Fashion Week and our seasonal likes, dislikes and well, “needs improvements.” YAYS: Rachel Sin: Not only does she return to the tents this season, but she also presented both her current and upcoming collection. I really like how she divided it into two mini-sessions (#rswork […]
Loose-Fitting and Asymmetry at Brit Wacher
If you’re looking for some comfortable, loose-fitting dresses with a bit of a twist, then Brit Wacher is your gal. Her Spring/Summer pieces, consisting of dresses and separates (including short tops) in unique, asymmetrical shapes – long on one side and shorter on the other as well as broader shoulders. They also look extremely comfortable, […]
