Thanks so much for allowing us to attend both of your stellar
events. We enjoyed ourselves, saw SOME great collections, posted
fabulous coverage and met amazing people (bloggers and journalists)
during the time we spent in each city. I would also like to thank Nikon for the use of their COOLPIX S8000, which we used to take all of our pictures and videos at LG Toronto Fashion Week.
All in all, I found the quality to be great including their video
capabilities (HD-most def)! The sound is not overbearing like most
cameras and their microphones. It was pretty easy to use (if I took
pics and video without using the manual, then anyone can). One thing I
found the battery ran out earlier than I expected. I enjoyed the
experience and hopefully will have the opportunity to test another
camera for another major event.

Back to the fashion – the recurring point of discussion at both
fashion weeks was the fact that many think both fashion weeks would be
much stronger for Canadian fashion if they would unite (a sentiment that
I have been expressing for many years). Yes UNITY!

As a country that has 35 million people, it is quite misleading to
think that all of a sudden we have enough show-worthy designers to fill
an entire week by city. Even more disheartening is the fact that
Ottawa, BC, Alberta and the Maritimes have all thrown in their
respective hats to host their own fashion weeks.

The fact that none of the fashion weeks are spectacular enough to
attract international media or buyers should say it all. As an industry
vying to promote Canadian designers, it has become too provincial and
in some cases way too commercial. Department stores such as Sears
should sponsor designers that they would be purchasing versus staging
their own shows. Imagine what could be accomplished by having one
national Canadian fashion week featuring 30 – 40 strong lines to do
Canada proud. Then and only then do I think buyers and media from other
countries will stand up and take notice.

In a time of economic uncertainty where cutbacks at the various media
outlets and amongst buying houses are common and designers do not have
the necessary cash to take their show on the road, I think centralizing
the fashion weeks, calling it a Canadian Fashion Showcase (or something
of the likes) would greatly help all involved. Here’s an idea,
regrouping menswear designers and concentrating them into one day may
encourage menswear buyers and publications to attend, buy and/or spread
the word. Our designers who are out there taking the world by storm (Rad Hourani, Erden etc…) have never even shown in Canada (pretty sad).

Superstar retailer Holt Renfrew even held their own private breakfast
featuring five labels who shared three pieces from their fall
collections while Holt’s Fashion Director Barbara Atkins and television
hostess Jeanne Beker hosted a live Q&A with the designers Greta Constantine, Jeremy Laing, Mikhael Kale and Denis Gagnon (the fifth being Lida Baday who ended upcalling in sick), endorsing those designers who they feel merit mention.

The driving force behind all fashion weeks is money! Personally I
think that sponsors would benefit considerably from a collaboration
between the two major cities (more bang for their buck, hitting both
English and French markets). Friday’s, which are usually lost, should be
dedicated to a collective show for the public and feature other retail
based collections (a la Joe Fresh Style) for the public’s viewing
pleasure (keeping designer collections industry oriented). Hence no
fashion gawkers hoarding the places of accredited media. A weekend
trade show featuring more commercial fashion brands and catwalk
presentations would also help the cause big time, therefore bringing
together designers, manufacturers and retailers to celebrate Canadian
fashion. On that note, what about an awards show a la CFDA?

Let’s think of fashion week like the Olympics. Toronto hosts for one
year and then passes the torch to Montreal who then would pass it on to
Vancouver (just a thought) to then start all over. Shows should run
from 12 noon – 9 pm giving a full day/week of shows.

Enough ranting and suggestions! Based upon this year’s participants
from the 2 larger Canadian fashion weeks, here is my wish list for a
proudly Canadian showing (in no particular order of importance):
IZMA, VAWK by Sunny Fong, Evan Biddell, David Dixon, Jules Power,
Gaudet, Barila, Cocolilly, Bodybag by JUDE, Denis Gagnon, Dimitri Chris,
Envers by Yves Jean Lacasse, Helmer, Eve Gravel, Marie Saint Pierre,
Micalla, Nadya Toto, Phillip Sparks, Philippe Dubuc, Andy The Anh,
Bustle, Orange by Angela Chen, LOVAS Wesley Badanjak, Comrags, Lucian
Matis, Basch by Brandon, Rudsak, Zoran Dobric and Pink Tartan. Those who did not participate but definitely should: M
Siamo, Franke Studio, MERCY, Tavan and Mitto, Carlie Wong, Mackage,
Romona Keveza, Lizares, Paul Hardy, Greta Constantine, Jeremy Laing,
Travis Taddeo, Mikhael Kale, Denis Gagnon, Lida Biday,
ComplexGeometries, NADA, Joeffer Caoc, Tassoni Brasil and Thieves. Designers such as Rad Hourani and Erden (to name a few) should be invited to show their collections and inspire the homeland talent.

[ندعوك للتسجيل في المنتدى أو التعريف بنفسك لمعاينة هذا الرابط] collection pays tribute to the imperial cat that reigns in
every woman’s spirit, (although all the cat-themed togs I saw this week
were on men – t-shirts emblazoned everything from evil cats to
cat-cosmonauts). Sponsored by Kusmi Tea, the
collection is massively luxurious – silver discs cascade down collar
bones, Swarovski crystals are woven into glittering mesh or colossal
chokers. I’m happy to report that a “coral” necklace is in fact made of
coloured pearls – your reefs are safe with Micalla. Unfortunately, the
work (like the tea!) is only available in Quebec. The Swarovski
boutique on Bloor should get on that. Today.

Inspired by the innovative architecture and culture of Brazil’s
favelas – where she worked as a nurse, then teaching crafts to children,
Baby Steinberg continues to turn cast-offs into
couture. Fabric remnants are woven like rag-rugs or piece-worked into
intricate gowns – some pieces took a hundred hours to make! Choryin Choi’s
imagination plays with what we all know Sigourney Weaver was thinking –
“Louboutin could make some gorgeous shoes out of that creature”. Alien
skin print leggings are paired with sci-fi white and plastic, and
accessorized with mutated monster handbags, but don’t worry ET – your
flesh isn’t on our wish list (this year).

Dixon’s show is fabulous as usual ), and the entire week ends with Denis Gagnon’s
limitless genius (above). Rabbit soft silks move with a feral quality,
and sleeveless jumper shorts are updated, sexy and belted at the bust.
Florals take a walk on the wild side (think Laura Ashley meets
Grindhouse) in a garden of gorgeous black chintz, complete with matching
patent leather box clutches.

All in all it was an exhausting, but exhilarating week. Emerging designers to keep an eye out for include Bonnie Yam, Naanafya of Garde d’Avante, Louie Manzo, and Kallvis Gents. Cheers to everyone (especially the designers) for a fabulous 25th
