We spoke to 12 Canadian women who are making their marks not only across our country but also around the world. From the young photographer Petra Collins who despite only being 19 has gained international acclaim for her work, to Farah Mohamed, who at a young age fled her birth country to seek refuge in Canada, the ladies featured here have found success across many broad spectrums. Familiar face Caroline Issa is regularly spotted in our street style snaps and mentions here how she gave up a high paying job to instead fulfill her love of fashion by working in that industry instead. Whether it is in activism, writing, singing or art, these women have a strong passion for what they do and can inspire others to do the same. From all ages and all walks of life, these 12 Canadian women have talent and vision that knows no bounds.

The fashion industry just got a set of mini mes all thanks to The Coveteur. The re-launch of the site started by Torontonians Erin Kleinberg and Stephanie Mark is kicked off by a video starring child actors as Taylor Tomasi Hill, Kimye, Leandra Medina aka Man Repeller, Rachel Zoe and many, many more.

The self-proclaimed party of the year was DJed by Leigh Lezark and had the Courtin-Clarins girls looking disinterested on their cellphones and wearing designers from Altuzarra to Osh Kosh. As per real life, mini Anna Dello Russo stole the show yelling, “everything is fashion, darling” to a regular sized Jeanne Beker who just so happened to be working the carpet.

P’Trique was understandably a bit miffed when Tyra Banks had glossed over him for the revamped return of America’s Next Top Model, but thanks to a little campaigning and a lot of tooching, P’Trique’s dreams of appearing on ANTM’s 19th season have come true.

To commemorate the new #totesamaze partnership, Banks (or “Ty,” as P’Trique calls her) teamed up with everyone’s favourite bearded fashionista for a little teaser video. While Banks’ acting skills are questionable to say the least (does the made-for-TV treasure Life-Size refresh your memories at all?), the clip is full of P’Trique one-liners, including a tender moment between the two at the end: “Look me in my smize….you are perfect.”

You know when people were like “I don’t relate to Girls,” and you were like “You’re lying”? Well that’s how I’ll feel if anyone tries to make it seem like they haven’t said at least four of the things that P’Trique (a.k.a. the genius behind the “Sh*t Fashion Girls Say” video series) has ever said, […]
