Toronto Fashion Week - Joe Fresh Style & Evan Biddell

The crowd at the Evan Biddell Show during Toronto Fashion Week was a mixed bag, and the best dressed were the on air media, interns and the ladies who lunch (Restylane is one of the sponsors after all). All the industry pros (models, photographers, buyers, editors and producers) were mainly in a uniform of chic monochrome (i.e. Black).
Spotted were:
- Elmer Olsen's holy trinity of the night: Amanda Laine, Taryn Davidson and Tara Gill (the winner of last season's bootcamp 2 bigtime! ) all in for Joe Fresh
- MTV Canada's Dan Levy and Jessi Cruickshank
- With Miss Congeniality going to Mr. Kurt Browning (I cannot say enough about now nice he was, a charmer for sure)


Amanda Laine - who was just in for the night for Joe Fresh, and leaving the next morning for New York.

Tara Gill - flawless. Definitely one of those girls that does not need makeup (jealous!).

Kurt Browning - jazz hands...Razzle dazzle (trying to distract from his clothes...?) - do you think we're all that superficial? Genuinely the nicest person of the week. For sure.
Evan Biddell showed to a PACKED house, and he definitely knows how to throw a good party!

">The Gossip - Standing in the Way of Control. The music all had a solid beat, dovetailing perfectly with his choice in models to complete his whimsical, edgy image. If I had to describe his show in one word, it would be theatre (an amazing production is the only way to describe it) - kicked off the night with some great energy! Some standout themes were: - some MAJOR dropped crotch (from denim to draped jersey) - no discrimination here, for boys and girls both - prints, Prints, PRINTS: -he had stripes as a running thread; on collars and layered as tanks or swimsuits under sheer bolero shrugs - the stripes were then cross-hatched into a gingham that was moulded into an extreme balloon silhouette in the form of halter dresses - and finally a sprinkling of comics (the illustrated kind) on a little bit of everything - a great visual palette cleanser sitting in an audience of greyscale. - all the looks were styled with banded leather around their knuckles, his girls are always ready to throw down

A standout crowd favourite. Always intense, Evan took a sweet eyelet and toughened it up in a jumpsuit a utility zipper running down the back.
