Glimpses of Fabulousness from Eight Shows at Vancouver Fashion Week!

The location, the designs, the audience, the models, the music, the format, what more can I say except extraordinary, world wide, futuristic, wildly creative and that Vancouver eco friendly and health conscious show construction and presentation.  Not much paper, no plastic bags, lots of recyclables, gorgeous plants, (not cut flowers) music, ballet and very friendly, efficient ticketing, leading to a relaxing, yet dynamic experience.

Priscille Cavinet (Paris) The silky, fitted tops and skirts with front details and 

varied hemlines would flatter petites, as would the shorts.  Fabulous hair 

and jewelry and Priscille, herself, modelling her look on the runway.

Shinya Yamaguchi (Japan) showed a men's street and formal men's 

wear collection that had the instant attention of the men 

sitting by me.  We celebrate you!

Thabo Makhetha (South Africa) gorgeous colors in beautifully detailed and 

visual jackets and capes.  Brilliant yellows and blues.  I want them all.

Atiz-the perfect white summer dress, short and very feminine, 

lots of reds and golds and Atiz, herself, on the red carpet.

Akira Kuwabara (Japan) Stunning, futuristic dresses, in 3d, complex 

shading of greys, blacks and reds.  Origami like cutting and styling of 

jackets and coats.  Begone hooded raincoats, Vancouver! Akira, 

you bow to your fans and we stood up and bowed to you.

Daiki Shimizu (Japan) Fantastic layered and ruffled, grey dresses - 

perhaps 50 shades of?  Wonderful design execution.

Blushing Boutique - floral, flirty and fitted designs, great 

for all figures but lovely for petites like me.  Patterned sundress, just one of 

those you'd love to find but easily made to fit and flatter at the boutique.

Kudos designers!  This year's the one!
