WMCFW Yays, Nays & Mehs: Spring/Summer 2016 Edition

Yes, back again with my wrap of World MasterCard Fashion Week.  And due to a crazy schedule, I did not attend many shows this season either (or, at least, not as many as I could have). Yays: Star Wars:   Loved the R2D2 shoes on display.  The Force is definitely with us. Press and Buyers’ […]

Rachel Sin Does it Again with #StayGold

So the collection only featured two gold pieces, but Rachel Sin’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection once again features simple, yet elegant classics.  With basic black, grey and white shades as well as yellow, orange and coral, the collection is perfect for many occasions, including date night, brunch with “the girls” and even the office (provided that […]

Going on a Mediterranean Vacation with Pink Tartan

Inspired by the Catalan region of Spain, the Pink Tartan’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection is filled with bright, casual pieces that give off the vibe of a fun vacation abroad.  There’s something old fashioned – perhaps taking people back to a time when air travel was a luxury – yet modern at the same time. Though […]

Delicate, Floral Looks at Mikhael Kale

The first day of World MasterCard Fashion Week included designers such as Matthew Gallagher and Sid Neigum.  However, I would have to say that the most interesting collection came from Mikhael Kale.  For Spring/Summer 2016, his pieces had, as a press release put it, “a delicate, yet highly ornate” look with an “elegant seasonal transition […]

WMCFW FW15 Wrap-Up: Yays, Nays and Mehs

I’m actually not sure if I can really post one this season, since I only went to six shows over a period of three days (this is what happens when there are too many events on your plate.  Ahhh… the life of a lifestyle blogger).  However, I do this every season, so I’ll try my […]

VAWK Makes Triumphant Return to Fashion Week

After being absent for a couple of seasons, Sunny Fong made a return to World MasterCard Fashion Week Tuesday evening with not just one collection, but also a small capsule collection in collaboration with Subway.  Yes, sandwich-inspired dresses, including two pieces that looked like lettuce.  While that was mostly wearable art, his main collection was […]

Sid Neigum: Many Practical Shades of Neutrals

Sid Neigum, who won the 2014-2015 Mercedes-Benz Start Up competition last season, presented his collection Monday evening, the first night of World MasterCard Fashion Week.  The models walked down the runway to a string quartet, wearing pieces which were a combination of very wearable pieces to ones which were a bit more artistic.  The palate […]

Toronto Fashion Week and the One of a Kind Show

It’s going to be a busy week for DelectablyChic!  World MasterCard Fashion Week starts tonight and we will be covering many of the shows, including Sid Neigum’s Mercedes-Benz Start Up presentation this evening.  Other shows we will be attending include VAWK (who has been absent for the past couple of seasons) and Lole on Thursday.  […]

WMCFW SS15 Wrap-Up: Yays, Nays and Mehs

Here we are again at the end of World MasterCard Fashion Week and our seasonal likes, dislikes and well, “needs improvements.” YAYS: Rachel Sin: Not only does she return to the tents this season, but she also presented both her current and upcoming collection.  I really like how she divided it into two mini-sessions (#rswork […]
