by Bernadette Morra October 21, 2015

If at first you don’t succeed, enter the Mercedes-Benz Start-Up competition again. That was the lesson learned last night by Montreal’s UNTTLD, who lost the competition back in 2011, only to come roaring back to claim top spot in the cross-Canada talent search. Designers Jose-Manuel St. Jacques and Simon Belanger delivered quietly seamed suits and […]

by Paige Dzenis June 5, 2013

See 25 art party-worthy ways to do your hair and makeup »

If there’s one event in Toronto that’s worth changing up your look for, it’s Power Ball. The Power Plant’s annual fundraiser party is more art show extravaganza than gala, making elaborate costumery just as popular as black tie looks. We’ve already given you some tips on what to wear on Thursday night, so now it’s time to consider the other important part of your Power Ball outfit: your hair and makeup.

Power Ball is the perfect time to tease your hair into an unrecognizable pouf or apply as many rhinestones to your eyelids as possible—seriously! (For further proof, check out our photo galleries from past Power Ball parties.) To provide you with some inspiration, we’ve turned the best source of high concept hair and makeup looks: the international runways. Thanks to the talents of makeup artists like Pat McGrath and Diane Kendal and hair stylists such as Guido Palau and Sam McKnight, we’ve found 25 looks from the Spring and Fall 2013 shows that you should definitely try to duplicate. So break out the bright pigments and dip-dye your hair: Power Ball is ready and waiting.

Quotable: Tom Ford on the whole no-runway situation

by FASHION Staff June 18, 2012

Tom Ford opened up to Grazia recently about why he eschewed spectacle-like runway shows in favour of hush-hush star-studded reveals. Though we’re still hoping he’ll take to the runway again one day, his reasoning for steering clear of them proves a good enough point that we’ll just have to forgive him for the veiled presentations.

“When you do a runway show you have to amp things up in a way so that they read from a great distance — so that they are designed for photography rather than for a consumer … And what I wanted to do was create clothes for real people.”
