How absolutely lucky we were to experience the spectacular presentation put on by famous Canadian designer David Dixon during this circuit of Toronto Fashion Week. Not only was the collection beautiful, the story behind its inception was deeply moving. The “Gene” collection is meant to raise awareness for Ovarian Cancer, and encouraged the show-goers to …
So I have been pretty much blown away by Toronto Fashion Week; by both the designers and literally by the cold wind! Day 4 of the shows was just as windy and chilly as the rest of the week, so I opted for a slightly more cosy week. But I definitely was looking forward to …

I loved the wide leg pant suits that scream girlboss. Hilary knows how to mix different silhouettes in a collection, because I walked out feeling …

House of Knot is a handcrafted collection of knitwear pieces. From sweaters to slippers, the small (but fine!) collection showcased variations of wool garments.
