Lundström Collection Brings Classic, Lady-Like Grace
Unlike many other shows at LG Fashion Week this season, Lundström Collection isn’t as much about being “on trend” than sticking with the classics. With a collection full of greys, blacks, winter whites and purples, it appeals to both younger and more mature demographics, focusing more on luncheons, teas and galas (as well as the office) […]
Party Girl vs. Soft and Sweet for BASCH
Project Runway Canada alumnus, Brandon Dwyer’s line, BASCH is a mix of both soft beauty and the hard, sexy woman. With short little black dresses, along with tiered and flowing dresses (that look more spring/summer than fall), there seems to be something for almost everyone. The looks seemed to be inspired by both the party […]
LG Fashion Week Day 4 Highlights
Shows today include Sid Neigum, Basch by Brandon, RUDSAK and the much-anticipated VAWK. This will be the first time that Sunny Fong’s line shows on-site. VAWK has previously held their shows in other locations. As usual, pictures will come as the day progresses.

LGFW Day 3 Highlights
Shows today include Micalla, a jewellery line based out of Montreal, as well as LOVAS, Comrags and KRANE Design. Micalla, which was first to show, took place in the smaller studio space where model donning basic black walked down the small runway wearing dangly, glittery pieces. More to come as the day goes on…
Korhani Turns Rugs into Fashion
When people think of Korhani, they think rugs. Things you put on the floor. People don’t think couture. However, this was proven wrong at LG Fashion Week on Tuesday, when Korhani presented what is perhaps the first rug runway show in history. Turing pieces into clothing was unlikely easy, but Kristen and Moji Korhani knew […]
LGFW Day 2 Highlights
Day 2 is the first full day of LG Fashion Week. With shows beginning at 1 pm, lines include Denis Gagnon, SHAN and the two biggies, Pink Tartan and Joe Fresh. More pictures coming as the day goes!
