Vancouver Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2014: Day 6

The last day of runway shows for the Vancouver Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2014 season brought an assortment of all kinds of fashion goodies. Rockers in wigs made for a head-banging first show from 2HB, and Kamila Gawronska wowed us with her nod to retro silhouettes (the high stiff-collared coats were perfection)...and then there was the finale! Kaye Morales' models, adorned with demonic halos, stunned in dramatic dresses in oxblood and black. It was dark, it was steamy, and it was extremely well constructed. And who could forget Lava Woman: a party in a runway show, she had a ton of colour, and a crazy amount of pattern, but she always pulls it off in an over-the-top fashionista type of way. In other words, she rocked it. The images really do speak for themselves: a great dose of inspiration in just a few short hours. Thanks to Greg Shield, Kuna Photography, and Yiheng Yu for the runway images!

I was very gleeful to see Manu Bennett from the TV show Arrow and Spartacus was sitting just across the runway. Even more awesome? He was wearing a jacket from local designer Valerio Moda, who just showed at Vancouver Fashion Week on Day 2! Looks good too, doesn't it? The mix of leather and knit paneling would make this a great fall jacket (because who can wait for Spring)!

Rony Walia of Darpan Magazine always stands out front row - the fur collar is the perfect addition for fall!

Until next season, see you on the runway, Vancouver!

Happy Styling! xo
