That’s the idea behind Toronto leather brand Namesake’s new Try-at-Home service, which melds the convenience of e-commerce with the old […]

Why Skincare Brands Are Getting In On The Customizable Beauty Trend
What once precluded the concept of luxury—easy access and attainability—now shapes and drives it. But if everything is within reach thanks to its democratization, how can anything still feel special? When it comes to skincare, the answer lies in customizing. SkinCeuticals has tossed its hat in the ring with its Custom Dose service, which it […]

We Get a Preview of the Upcoming Vans Custom Options for 2018 and Beyond
At the WaffleWorks Innovation Center on the Vans campus in Costa Mesa, Calif., I’m watching through a tiny oven window as a glossy black crocodile print (my choice) is being “cooked” onto a pair of clean white canvas shoes. The experimental new Vans custom process needs a 150°C “oven” and all of five minutes, which […]

Poppy Barley is Designing the Leather Goods of the Future
Travel can be a life-altering experience. Edmonton-based sisters Kendall and Justine Barber know this especially well. The two were travelling in Indonesia when they had a custom-footwear experience in Bali that inspired them to start Poppy Barley, a made-to-measure-boots operation, in 2012. A shortage of formal design training didn’t keep this direct-to-consumer brand from becoming […]

Canadian Designer Sid Neigum Proves that Cars are the New Couture

Whether you’re cruising down the 401 or strolling down Queen Street, what you drive and how you dress can determine if you stand out amongst the crowd. With this philosophy in mind, Canadian designer […]

Lady Gaga Dazzles in Custom Versace at the 2017 Super Bowl
It was almost hard to get a good look at Lady Gaga’s outfits during last night’s Super Bowl Halftime show. When she wasn’t leaping from rooftops or ascending rising platforms, she was in non-stop motion up on the stage. Singing, dancing and performing her little heart out. Her sequined, strong-shouldered, high-necked bodysuit and glittering boots […]

Ones to watch: Leilanni Todd handcrafts for the girls about town
We love Toronto-based designer Leilanni Todd, for her hand-crafted and affordable wears, but mostly, we’re really into the laid-back attitude and style of her clothes. A fresh new take on the basics, her wears are the type you want in every colour.
Todd has been working alongside other designers for years, and ventured out on her own two years ago. Since then she’s been working with mostly jersey and leather, making turbans and turban headbands, mullet T-shirts and dresses, and leather-paneled shorts and leggings—and most are available in a variety of colours and patterns. Her styles are undeniably cute, and can be made-to-order with your exact measurements, which is a pretty sweet deal for custom-made threads.
