Canadian-style promoters Gail McInnes and Amanda Brugel set up shop at the Hazelton Hotel during TIFF to outfit celebs in homegrown design. Their just-launched red-carpet rentals service, The Style Box, is aiming to get Canadian-made clothing and jewellery onto high-profile names going to high-profile events. At TIFF, their list of wins was long: Kristin Booth, Grace Park, Tara Spencer-Nairn and Ivana Santilli for starters. Check out our gallery of Canadian design at TIFF, after the jump.

The anticipation is high when the couple must face obstacles that challenge the strength of their marriage, all set against the beauty and mystique of the Indian city.

TIFF Vote: Do you like Natalie Portman’s red carpet look?
Photography by James Helmer
Natalie Portman can pretty much do no wrong, style wise. She always looks so cute and put together. It’s maddening, really. The short, pink floral print Lanvin dress she sported at the Love and Other Impossible Pursuits premiere [see our pics from the red carpet] was just about spot on, but we’re not really digging the big flower on the top (sorry, Alber). Perhaps Sex & the City has ruined oversized blooms for us. Do you agree?

Tom Ford’s A Single Man [watch the trailer] was picked up by the Weinstein company early Tuesday, shortly after the film’s premiere. An all-night negotiation led to the purchase, with Alliance picking up the Canadian release of the picture. Ford spoke up on the differences between film and fashion, and bristled at questions focused only on the latter. “Fashion is a commercially creative outlet, whereas film is purely impressionistic,” he said. The former Gucci designer went on to say that the film’s costumes were “to serve these characters. It wasn’t a costume parade for me.” [Eye Weekly, Toronto Life] Read the rest of this entry »
