It’s the final day of fashion week in Toronto and we’re getting ready to wrap things up with the final designers set to present this afternoon. Today’s shows will be no less exciting than the last four days, with the exotic jewellery and handbag collection from Huntress, as well as Stephan Caras’ feminine designs and a glittering gown collection by Mikeal D. While we still have Fashion Saturday to look forward to, we can’t help but feel a little celebratory, as Toronto fashion industry supporters have pledged to work towards supporting and developing local talent.

As promised, we are delivering our third exclusive photo shoot brought to you by Toronto creative group The Collections. While the first photo shoot offered an awesome selection of Canadian-designed outerwear, today’s shoot will feature the best in knits, with a mix of our favourite global designers, including Isabel Marant, Commes de Garcons and Acne Studios, with the best Canadian designers such as Sid Neigum, Laura Siegel and Som Kong. As no one knows winter better than Canadians themselves, these looks will have you ready to cozy up as the weather starts to cool down.
