100 Years of Beauty

LG Fashion Week in Toronto had an amazing opening night gala based on the theme of 100 Years of Beauty. From 1910 to the present day, each era was beautifully represented. I made this collage from photos of the Opening Gala that I found on blogto.com . As you can see, even the men took a nostalgic trip down memory lane, although the Amadeus look broke the 100 year rule. Now, I am off to raid my great-grandmother's closet - again!


The official LGFashionWeek website has amazing videos and photos that will give you a real sense of the drama.

My favourite designer of the week is definitely Ramona Keveza. Based in New York, Keveza was born in London, Ontario and still manufactures clothes in Canada. A leader in the bridal industry, Keveza is now successfully tapping into the eveningwear market. Here are three of my favourites from the show.

p.s. What's your favourite look from the past? Mine is the 1940's - the clothes, the shoes, the hair - there is just something about that unique style that is timeless.
