Ever wonder what a model does after she’s done walking a show? Judging by all of the girls we snapped coming out of the Alexander Wang show (ahem, Liya Kebede, Magdalena Frackowiak, Hanne Gaby Odiele, Frankie Rayder to name a few), she calls her bf, or her mom, or her agent. What do celebs do? They stop and pose for our boy Lewis, is what they do. Oh, snap! (Get it?)

Forget Courtney Love or Alicia Keys. How to Make it in America star and one of my maj crushes Bryan Greenberg was sitting front row at yesterday’s Alexander Wang show and I wasn’t sure how I was going to concentrate on the show. But as the first girls walked out onto the incredible mirrored runway funhouse in day glo–lined, laser-cut leather utility vests and miniskirts it was clear that Wang’s upbeat downtown cool factor trumped a celeb crush any day. Hawaiian floral prints adorned sporty, motocross-inspired separates and Aztec prints got a modern makeover on skin hugging jersey. Perforated leather do-rags and motorcycle helmets were added as a tough-girl touch.

When Todd Lynn moved to London in 1998, we doubt the Smith Falls native guessed that he’d one day be atop the British fashion scene. Already beloved by the likes of Rihanna, Mick Jagger, Courtney Love and fellow Canuck Coco Rocha, the tailor with a hard rock edge was recognized by the British Fashion Council at last night’s Fashion Forward awards. Along with Meadham Kirchoff and Peter Pilotto, Lynn recieved a two season-long sponsorship focusing on financial and business planning.
Eager to hear how he’s been taking it all in, we quizzed Lynn on the award, the future, and of course, how it feels to be repping Canada across the pond!
How does it feel to be recognized for your talent in such a big way?
I’m thrilled to have been selected as one of the designers to receive the BFC’s Fashion Forward Award. It’s great to have my hard work recognized by a panel of some of the most influential fashion people in London.
What is the Fashion Forward fund going to help you do for the next year?
The money will go towards the expenses of the show, but I am especially looking forward to working with the teams at the BFC and [Coutts & Co] on the mentoring side of the award which will provide invaluable business insight and information to help my business grow.
How does it feel to be the only Canadian in the mix?
Yay Canada! I’m so proud to be part of the group of Canadians who are such a big part of London Fashion Week. It’s great that we can show the fashion talent that Canada can produce and that we can hopefully give a little inspiration to those fashion students slaving away in Canada, in showing that they can make it…. If they work very very very hard.
Any way you’d give us a tiny little tidbit into what fall looks like? We can’t wait!
I never give anything away before the show…. Watch this space…

We’d like to direct your attention to the self-professed “gothic counterpoint to Tavi,” French wunderkind Charles Guislain. Though he doesn’t have a blog, his sense of style has turned enough heads to land him in Italian Vogue and turn him into a YouTube sensation. At 17, he says he is already tired of Europe: “I need to escape European life. I am a little bored with this now.” Le sigh! [The Cut]
