Toronto Fashion Week to Hit the Street

Taking a page from NYC's Fashion Week, celebrated in midtown's Bryant Park, Toronto's week of runway shows is also back in a prime pedestrian intersection, Nathan Philips Square. I've been around for the Liberty Grand shows and Muzik too but this venue excites me a bit more. Likely it's because the best fashion I see in Toronto is on the streets, where style is most exposed. It's also where, rubbing shoulders with strangers all day long, fashion plays the biggest part in your identity, you can play it up or play it down, be anyone you feel, swathed in a sweet cloak of anonymity.

L’Oreal Fashion Week begins showing fall collections 2008 on March 17th.
