Let's talk fashion.


Goodmorning fabulous people of Montreal ! Once again, Mother Nature tried to ruin our perfectly coiffed hair, head-turning pumps, & striking ensembles– when will she learn? A little snow never stopped our ladies from looking their best.


Alright, let’s talk fashion. We had a quite the line-up yesterday night; Micalla, Anomal Couture, Annie 50, Dihn Bá Design, Bodybag by Jude & Mélissa Nepton. Micalla designer Camilla Jørgensen stayed true to her Scandinavian roots by integrating clean cuts & multi-functionality into her designs.  This Danish designer really knows how to step onto the scene with a bang, surely making her MFW runway debut an unforgettable one. Jørgensen captures nature’s colours & uses the most rarest & beautiful stones in her creations. The models rocked the catwalk in sheer glamour; sultry red lipstick & angelic soft curls – very Jean Harlow. Sporting sweet heart necklines, fitted yet elegant black dresses & accessorizing in sparkly, brightly-coloured, crystal drop earrings, necklaces & bracelets, the audience was left in complete awe.

 Sonia Leclair, another debutante at MFW exuded seduction with her line Anomal Couture. The line’s look intrigued & mesmerized as the models paced up & down the runway in tight long pencil skirts, bustiers & pleather-wool bodysuits. The entire Fall/Winter collection is fierce & futuristic, mainly black with touches of camel & gold. Original & timeless, perfect for the city’s fashionistas !

 No stranger to MFW, Bodybag by Jude enchanted the crowd with her Fairytale-themed collection. Fruit props in hand, violent red lips & pale white skin, I felt like I was watching Snow White come to life – minus the dwarfs ! The line included stripes & herringbones against dark colours such as navy blue & brown while touches of red, cream, greyish green & taupe add flavour to her wool & knit creations.

Fabulous colour combinations. It all compliments itself so perfectly

Snow White inspired - she's even holding a basket of fruit !


Winner of “La Collection”, TVA’s runway reality show, Mélissa Nepton closed the show. This born-&-bred Quebecker showed the world that you can still be sexy & stylish even if that means adding a few extra layers. Wool, cashmere, silk & satin in soft grey, cream, black, taupe & charcoal are all sources of her asymmetrical & versatile pieces. My favourite look ? Cream riding pants paired with a cashmere soft grey scarf that can be worn as a cape with giant fluffy pompoms. With this outfit, I’ll be all bundled up for winter & still do it with style – thank you Mrs. Nepton !

Looking fabulous & warm - best of both worlds

Oversized fur oven mitts - perfect for our -30 winters

That's a wrap-up for Day 2 of MFW. Thanks again for all your support, I can't even begin to explain how much it means to me !

Kisses,

Ps. Almost 1000 hits ! Yay me !
