Vancouver springs forward

Vancouver springs forward

Posted on October 8, 2008

As New York, London, and Milan fashion weeks wrap up for another season, Vancouver recently hosted its very own sartorial celebration, BC Fashion Week. While the line-up was fairly disappointing—particularly because local favourites such as Evan & Dean, Mellinda-Mae Harlingten, and Christina Darling chose either to show only in Toronto or, alas, not at all—those designers that did present their spring lines showed relatively strong collections.
