For my last entry as a FASHION reporter, I couldn’t think of a story that captures the spirit of the Vancouver fashion industry better than this one. It’s the brainchild of photographer Darryl Humphrey (darrylhumphrey.com), who, during his time in the trade, has worked with some of the city’s finest local designers. Humphrey began to notice that, in passing, they would often comment on each other’s work and speak with the highest of respect for one another. But with their busy schedules, they rarely had the chance to meet themselves.

With the assistance of Shallom Johnson, editor of Stylefinds, Humphrey put together an event that would offer these designers the opportunity to interact socially and creatively.

This month I was lucky enough to have a cross-country chat with the lovely Carlie Wong (carliewong.com).  Her sleek Spring 2009 collection caught the eye of fashion elite and her Fall 2009 outing is about to hit the runway at LG Fashion Week.

Fifteen minutes late is no longer fashionable. This I learned the hard way, arriving to Carlie Wong’s sophomore outing just in time for her standing O. It wasn’t hard to see where that came from, once we caught up with runway footage of the “Glamourous Gangster” collection.
