Saturday night at the Darling Foundry in Old Montreal, the fashion world stumbled down the rabbit hole and into Fashion Wonderland. The collective fashion show, organized by Heels & HeART, benefitted the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada. Young Montreal designers and artists displayed their creations inspired by the characters of the classic Alice In Wonderland tale. The show was critiqued by a renowned panel of judges: womenswear designer Marie Saint-Pierre, menswear designer Dimitri Chris, Janna Zittrer of FLARE magazine, and Joshua and David of the JoshuaDAVID boutique.

Have you ever dreamed of performing a sultry pas de deux in a dim alley in the middle of Buenos Aires? Or have you dreamed of being lead graciously by Al Pacino in the lush dining room of a grand hotel on a sunny afternoon? If your answer is yes, well you'd better learn to Tango! Which I did, not too long ago :) I had the pleasure of participating in a pre-Milonga at Air de Tango studio, where Mylène with her team of professionals and some friends introduced us to this fiery dance and showed us a few steps.

Karl Lagerfeld c'est un peu le prêtre de la mode, celui qui dit la messe et bénit tout l'univers de la couture.

Il a inventé, créé, recréé les styles, les tendances, les attitudes, il a mis la lumière sur des jeunes filles qui sont passées de porte manteaux à icônes de la mode. Rappelons que Claudia Schiffer et Inès de la Fressange, c'est lui; la nouvelle image et le succès de Chloé, c'est lui; il habille également  Barbie pour les 50 ans de la poupée...la liste est longue!

Qui ne s'est jamais retrouvé dans une situation pareille : À New York, ou autre endroit branché, dans un coin un peu éloigné, un peu restreint, notre regard vacillant devant de nombreux faux sacs Louis Vuitton, accrochés devant nous, mis à notre disposition. Si facile, si approchables, si abordables, si jolis, si… semblables, voir pareils, à ceux qui nous sont et seront probablement toujours hors d’atteinte.

Dinh Bà a mis le couvert, et du genre argenterie. Pour son premier défilé indépendant, il présenta sa collection printemps/été 2011 au Bain Mathieu.

Montreal’s a beautiful European-like city, with a mixture of cultures and a varied arts scene. Every time I travel, I compare the places and people to Montreal. My conclusion, not a surprise... Montrealers sure have GREAT style! I am impressed daily, about how people here are so creative and original. We do have a lot of great stores to help us dress to impress! Montreal is known to have a big clothing industry, arguably second only to NYC or LA.
