Hilary MacMillan Debuts Fall/Winter 2013

Hilary MacMillan presented her Fall/Winter 2013 collection at 99 Sudbury last Monday, a line that is fairly affordable, at the $150-$400 range, according to a Q&A.  DelectablyChic!, however, was unable to attend the show, so we could only judge the collection from photos sent to us. This collection, which consists of gorgeous, rich tones, ranging […]

LOFT Summer Looks: T-Shirts, Sandals and More Warm Weather Goodness

While the weather was dreadful last week, things turned for the better by the time I attended the LOFT summer preview event earlier this week.  Tired of winter, and winter weather in general, not only was I happy to see the warmer weather, but also to see the warm weather clothing that have either already […]

Rebecca Minkoff’s Boho Fun Spring 2013 Collection

Warm weather-friendly brightly coloured pieces mixed with whites dominate Rebecca Minkoff’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection.  In addition, tends that were “it” in 2012 continue next season, including patterned pants.

Gorgeous, Lady-Like Lines at Arthur Mendonça

Arthur Mendonça’s Fall/Winter 2012 collection is one of the few that I’m absolutely in love with.  From the salmon coloured, dolman sleeved dress to a long sleeved, turquoise gown with a centre slit, slim leather pants and shiny, patterned pieces, there’s something about the collection that is sophisticated, elegant and lady-like.  While there are some […]

Classics, Colours and Metallics for Triarchy!

Mercedes-Benz Start-Up finalist, Triarchy Brand showed their first collection at the Studio.  This BC-based denim line opened the show with three models, two guys and a girl putting on a jeans from a pile of denim at the back of the runway – a little confusing at first.  This was followed by the rest of […]
