DRESSED is a Success

A sincere and belated thank you to everyone who came out on Fashion's Night Out to see our screening of the documentary DRESSED presented by Maybelline. (For those who don't know, I also run Tastemakers during TIFF, so pardon my delayed gratitude.) The evening could not have been more perfect - from the weather to the sponsors to the amazing crowd. Special thanks to DJ Dan and of course, Nary Manivong, whose presence made the night complete. 

This was the official Canadian premiere of DRESSED, but we hope to help bring the documentary, and Nary, back to Toronto again. Nary's next chapter will be an exciting one to watch.

Official shout outs go to: RAC Boutique and the Burroughes Building, for being great venue partners;
Maybelline, Martini brand and the Community Agency, Sonic Events and TASTE Culinary for making it happen; and the volunteers, for your tireless energy, thank you!

Don't Miss DRESSED at Fashion's Night Out

I'm so thrilled to host DRESSED presented by Maybelline during Fashion's Night Out. 

Dressed shares the true and truly inspiring story of designer Nary Manivong's adolescent life, which found him homeless at 14 in Columbus, Ohio to the present as he prepares for his debut show at New York Fashion Week. Nary is an example of the incredible focus and dedication required to succeed in the fashion business. 

Save the date! Open to the public! Space is limited! You'll find us upstairs from rac boutique's Bazaar on the 6th floor of the Burroughes Building.

Thursday, September 6
Doors open 6PM
Screening at 9PM

Toronto: Get Off this Weekend

Of course I speak of getting a good percentage off your total when shopping this weekend.  (Get your mind out of the gutter, silly.)  There are a few great sales, and one has a nice charitable element.  Each sale runs Friday, November 12 - Sunday, November 14.  Enjoy!

Carte Blanche at 758 Queen Street West celebrates the "void of uncolour" with 20% off everything black.  It still leaves plenty of options - think little black dress, long black blazer, cozy black knits, second skin black leather.  Then....

...head uptown to Yorkville's rac boutique (124 Cumberland) for 20% off on almost everything.  This sweet shop stocks great Canadian and international labels with a keen eye towards things you won't find elsewhere.

Then trip over to Hazelton Lanes to visit TNT*.  They're collecting donations (as little as $10) for The Breakfast Program in return for 25% off all regular price merchandise.  Or pick through fall/winter items now marked down 30%-40%. 

* All TNT locations in Toronto and Montreal are part of this sale.
