New York Fashion Week FW 2015: Covering Shows Remotely

I’m so glad the internet exists.  That way, I can watch fashion shows from other cities without having the need to travel!  Once again, DelectablyChic! will be writing about select shows presenting at New York Fashion Week, including BCBG MaxAzria, Rebecca Minkoff and more.  Look for posts coming by the day after each show. Most […]

It’s about transforming two dimensional to three dimensional; achieved through laser cutting and mathematical pattern design” followed by a condensed version at the MBStartup presentation along with five […]

Carolina Herrera: Ladylike and Graceful, as Usual

If I had all the money in the world, I would buy every single piece Carolina Herrera shows, every single season.  Sadly, I don’t have that kind of money for these very beautiful, lady-like looks, which are, as usual, gorgeous. For spring/summer 2015, cuts are a bit geometric – the first few looks featured cropped […]

Fashion Week Street Style Inspo…or Not…

There’s the OTT street style one sees at various Fashion Weeks and there’s normal, every day clothing.  Honestly, I don’t really give a HOOT on the former.  I think a lot of people who wear the crazy clothing at Fashion Week only do so to get attention, and I have never really been inspired by […]

Fashion Week: The Amazing, Interesting and Needs Improvement – Fall 2013 Edition

Yes, it’s time once again.  This was my ninth time  covering Toronto Fashion Week (I say Toronto Fashion Week because it’s been under several brands since I started back in 2009, ranging from L’Oreal to LG and now, World MasterCard), and each time, there were hits and misses.  So here we go with what I […]

World MasterCard Fashion Week Highlights: Days Four and Five

Day Four: Starting the day off was Matthew Gallagher, who makes his David Pecaut Square debut with a collection that was, like Pink Tartan, inspired by Alfred Hitchcock (see write-up here).  This was followed by the avant-garde UNTTLD, whose signature all-black styles once again ruled the runway.  Many of the looks translate well in the […]

World MasterCard Fashion Week Highlights: Days Two and Three

Day Two:   Menswear line Klaxon Howl’s collection definitely had a bit of a wild west vibe, especially with their women’s capsule collection (the guys’ pieces leaned more towards the signature blue collar look).  True to the brand’s philosophy, the women’s line also carries a rugged vibe.  While this was an okay attempt at women’s […]
