The very last dress of the very last show of WMCFW truly deserved a slow motion video to take in all the glamorous ready to wear masking as haute couture goodness of this look. All of the onlookers were stunned and held their breath in beautiful shock as this princess gown literally glided down the blood …
Toronto – the hustling bustling centre of Canada – was a whirlwind adventure, and we were so lucky that we got to experience #WMCFW while were there. We put together this short film to showcase the highlights of our journey. The Stylist’s Journey never ends!
The very last show of WMCFW this season was the highly-anticipated and well attended Mikael D, where ready-to-wear meets couture. This season, he presented a collection highly influenced by Chinese culture, with a pseudo-dragon dance and drum solo to start the show, the models walking down a shiny red (freshly installed) runway, and the Chinese …

This all-mens presentation at WMCFW was one of our all-time favourite collections. The nod to world-world military medicine and utilitarianism is so on point with the general trend in menswear. No monologue at the beginning, no live band, no explicit branding, no grand finale, just simple, clean, good menswear that is taking risks and being both futuristic and “old-school” in the same breath. Bravo, 3.Paradis, bravo. A very well played presentation.

Its yet another nod to the innovative and forward-thinking designers who …

After Miss. Jailhouse Blues busted her all-striped look, I knew this diamond and gold-bullet belt two piece needed to make an appearance. Out of all my looks for WMCFW, this was by far the most excitingly eye-catching but also the most comfortable. Everyone needs to find a dope sweat suit.
The Triarchy runway show was the first we attended at WMCFW, and it definitely set the tone for great things to come. The show opened with a trumpet call and a visual description establishing the context of being at a summer camp. Two models entered initially with clipboards to assign the onlookers to different cabins, …
