FASHION Magazine

Last night, Kirk Pickersgill and Stephen Wong of Greta Constantine held court (along with many stylish subjects) in the lush backyard of a beautiful Rosedale home in Toronto to reveal the second collection in their new accessibly priced womenswear line, Primer. As could be expected, all of Greta’s signature fingerprints appeared in the line of richly hued draped-cotton and jersey dresses that were displayed on prettily posed mannequins positioned poolside. While the collection won’t be available for a few months, one thing you can look forward to are totally manageable price points, starting at less than $100 and ranging no higher than $500.

Hot off the heels of sexy collaborations with Mark Fast and FASHION‘s own George Antonopoulos, Danier continues to prove its star status with SKIN, a capsule collection created in collaboration with Greta Constantine. Landing mid-August in Danier stores nationwide and on danier.com, Kirk Pickersgill and Stephen Wong’s take on leather goes way beyond the basic bomber.

Hot on the heels of their mass-market collabs with both Danier and Aldo, Kirk Pickersgill and Stephen Wong of Greta Constantine, bring us Primer⎯a capsule collection that aims to be just that, the accessibly priced “base coat for a woman’s wardrobe,” with price points ranging from $95 to $275.

When your first sight is a quartet of male models in shiny trunks, fake tattoos and sandals paired with work socks (toes and heels excised for summer) posing by a pool spanned by Grecian columns, you know you’re at a Stephen Wong and Kirk Pickersgill production. The pair, known best for their women’s line, Greta Constantine, decided to throw a party to officially launch their menswear effort Ezra Constantine.

We always look forward to the Greta Constantine (gretaconstantine.com) show. Designers Stephen Wong and Kirk Pickersgill are the go-to pair for silk jersey dresses that are ready to party party. (Their frocks have been spotted on the likes of Jennifer Hudson, Kreesha Turner, Iman and Nelly Furtado.) So when we heard they were doing pants for fall, we had to talk.
