What a Week!

Finally managed to find a minute to myself after such a hectic week. Vancouver Fashion Week definitely opened my eyes to a lot of things I didn’t expect to see. It was an amazing amazing experience and I met some really talented people including designers, models and others in the fashion industry. I was left undecided as to whether that world would be for me or not, I’m leaning towards one side over the other, I’m not going to say which but it was definitely an unforgettable experience that I would enjoy being involved in again. Let’s just say however the ‘catty-ness’ and cut throat nature of the fashion world definitely is NOT me. I was lucky enough to meet some really talented designers, D.W. being my favourite, his creations, show and concept were incredible, fashion should be a heightened statement of yourself if not yourself alone and I feel this collection definitely proved that. Daryl White is a designer from Calgary who’s ‘my favourite colour is bleach’ & ‘closets are for clothes’ statement pieces are ‘brill’, he takes influences from Lady Gaga, as well as combining different fabrics and textures which help to make casual attire, glamorous all at the same time. I was lucky enough to close the show for him and thankfully Becky and Luke came to see me walk on Friday and recorded it for me so I shall upload when I get it. I shall let the pictures and clothes speak for themselves as I guess that’s what fashion is all about, and I definitely cannot do the pieces justice in one blog entry.
