Martini Winery, Success in the City (formally known as Divas in the City) is essentially an evening seminar which features experts in the fields relevant to urban women professionals and entrepreneurs.

Specialty sizing is often drab, basic and/or grandmotherly. Unless, of course, you want to spend over $500 on brands like Marina Rinaldi. However, you don’t have to worry about that at Primaala (the name comes from the words prime and maala, which means “to rise up” in Hebrew), a new boutique in the Dundas west […]
The 2014 Toronto Fashion Incubator (TFI) New Labels was held at One King West Monday night, featuring presentations of designs by four finalists.

The pictures were then digitally edited to look more “ideal” in the mainstream sense. Before these pictures were done, the women commented on how they were often unsatisfied with their looks because they didn’t […]
Unlike other designers, Nanette Lepore’s models did not look like walking trees or bushes with dark leaves – few of the models were bulked up with big, round layers on top, while wearing sleek, form-fitting skirts or pants. Many of the shows, especially from designers who target younger market featured this kind of styling – […]
Once again, Hervé Léger provided the audience with the typical, bodycon looks. Ranging from below-the-knee dresses to shorter pieces and some body suits, there really isn’t that much of a deviation, save for a few select styles (namely the fringey skirts).
