Toronto Highlights - Spring/Summer 2007
It may have a ways to go in comparison to its older, more fashionable cousins, but like an awkward defiant teen trying to find its identity amongst Paris, Milan and New York, Toronto Fashion Week thumbs its nose at the naysayers, without feeling the need to answer to anyone.
Case in point - Paul Hardy, who unleashed his inner geisha. So what if models in sky-high platforms and a grass strewn staircase didn’t mix, the end result was the same: pure drama.

Paris Highlights - Spring/Summer 2007
If you’re going to show in Paris, you better bring your A-game because there is little patience for second-rate. This is a city, after all, that puts fashion on a par with art, literature and fine food. Add to that the caravan of press and buyers that arrives in town each season tired and jaded but with big expectations so the pressure is on to get their attention. Luckily, spring/summer 07 was all over the map, veering from athletic to romantic, nostalgic to full throttle into the future. Enjoy the ride.

Milan Highlights - Spring/Summer 2007
New York may have sportswear and celebrities, and Paris may dictate and direct the trends, but Milan has sparkle -it shines, and come spring, it is determined to bring sexy back to the streets. Some of its clothes seem excessive and unwearable, while some are the finest example of the “Made in Italy” moniker. Either way, this season Milan got our attention and finessed its message into two fine points: you'll need something extremely short and something metallic this spring!

Paris Highlights - Fall/Winter 2006
The City of Light was anything but this season. Fall fashion on the Paris runways was universally heavy, dark, and melancholy. Pundits talked of cocooning against a violent world, but there was also a gothic romance and perverse strength colouring the collections that made for beautiful and best of all, new clothes. It’s a season to cover up and embrace fashion’s new sobriety. Trust us, everyone’s doing it.

That said, Italy is still capable of some surprises, some intrigue, and some truly wonderful clothes. Check it out...

Paris Highlights - Fall/Winter 2005
Look at these clothes, because this is what Fall 2005 is going to look like. There is a new conservativism coming to fashion and as usual, Paris has nailed the zeitgeist. Clothes are dark, somber, and strict, and most often trace their roots to another decade.

Milan Highlights - Fall/Winter 2005
Milan Fashion Week for Fall 2005 was a tricky one. The city itself was cold and rainy, and the fashion flock was battling the mid-season blues and an Oscar-addled schedule. Mostly, however, the somber tone was set by the clothes, as the center of big, glitzy brands was bogged down in black and sober shapes. Fashion in Milan is in transition.

Milan Highlights - Spring/Summer 2005
Every fashion week comes with its own personality. Milan Spring 2005 behaved like a surly teenager.
