Tonight marked the official beginning of Toronto's LG fashion week's, "Power of Style". Held in the Allstream venue - which is vastly larger than last years location - this year is sure to impress with it's "Power of Style" theme.
Impress is exactly what it did.
With fabulous music, space, and decor, the night began on a high note as Robin Kay, President of the Fashion Design Council of Canada took to the runway. In a fabulous opening speech, she explained, the "'Power of style' is in all of us. It means to be bold, to be noticed, and to make us feel good." She was also thrilled to announce that this was the the first time, that the Toronto's LG fashion week would be streamed live internationally for all to see here. A huge step in putting Toronto's fashion week on the map for others around the world.
Immediately following the opening speech, designer Izzy Camilleri and fashion host/journalist Adrian Mainella showcased their talents as their amazing, "IZMA" fall/winter collection took over the runway. It was breathtaking.
A beautiful display in a wide variety of furs hit the runway; beaver, coyote, fox, and muskrat to name a new.
It was a collection that was sure to impress a wide range of personality types. The collection was feminine, edgy and elegant. Beautiful suits, vests, shirts and dresses were displayed in alongside leathers, cottons, and mesh materials in a fantastic array of neutrals from creams, blacks, and the warmest of browns.
My particular favorite; a fabulous creme blazer that had a fox vest wrapped around the shoulders and lapel. It was STUNNING.
I can't wait to see more of Izzy and Adrian's collaborations.
What do you think of the collection?
