LG Fashion Week: Thursday’s best look
EVAN BIDDELL Spring 2010. Photography by Angela Y. Martin
The closer at Evan Biddell’s post-apocalyptic show grabbed us with it’s brilliant coral-orange hue, but the way the fabric folded and billowed around the model–a protective cape in a stormy world–held us to the last glimpse.

Toronto: Katrina Tuttle Spring 2010
KATRINA TUTTLE Spring 2010. Photography by Angela Y. Martin
Not unlike fellow designer Jason Meyers, Halifax’s Katrina Tuttle designs clothes for parties, though Tuttle’s are of the garden, not nightclub, variety. And many of her spring frocks were garden variety indeed. Similar one-shouldered shifts marched out in textured white, pink satin with a tone-on-tone circle motif, a black and white paintbrush print. Better was Tuttle’s fun take on handkerchiefs. Fabric was buttoned and folded into bubble skirts gray and white, up the front of a translucent pale gray dress or into a strapless frock in three shades of aqua. (The idea was less successful creeping over the shoulders of jackets and yet more dresses.) A few standalone items of note were a strapless maxi in an oversized flower print, a bubble dress done in bright white jersey with floral burnouts and the final looks: two embellished, effusive pieces that seem to best display the kind of party Tuttle wants to attend.

Toronto: Pink Tartan Spring 2010
PINK TARTAN Spring 2010
After last season‘s combat boot clad models stomped down the Pink Tartan runway, we wondered if PT really stood for Pretty Tough. This season, it seems that designer Kimberley Newport-Mimran decided to take a turn in another direction: back to the ’80s. But rather than looking like just another runway rewind, PT’s spring 2010 collection delivered on the fresh factor. Bold shoulder pads and sequin-sprayed vests, cropped jackets and dresses drove home the opulent ’80s theme, while the spandex workout gear and anorak jackets lent a “Let’s Get Physical” feel. It was all very Sporty Spice and it worked, big time. Mixed in amongst all of this shimmer and shine were the tried and true PT touches: exposed zippers, nautical stripes, wide-leg sailor trousers and classic button-down shirts (which played the role of a sexy dress this time around). Trenches morphed from cropped to maxi to coat dress in a range of go-with-everything hues like light grey,
midnight blue and tan. FASHION‘s final thought: When can we get our hands on this hot collection?
