Canadian Haute Couture

     I have always been skeptical of 'new-money' designers, still trying to find their niche, not 
quite refined, and sometimes the quality is less than perfect. Or that was my assumption at least.  The truth is Canadian fashion has not been as exposed as American or European labels have. And until now, I have never thought much of the creative capacity of my fellow Canadian designers. 


Givenchy Spring Couture 2010

        Ultimately, high fashion is what really tickles the nape of my neck. Anything that plunges into the 'hems' of natural fiber, hand-stitched, hand-embroidered and anything else that has traces of human DNA to suggest real blood, sweat and tears in the hands of an atelier as opposed to a Chinese infant, is something to lust after. I have often been near tears when gazing at a collection purely for the intricate effort that is Haute Couture.
Elie Saab Fall Couture 2011

       So it was to my surprise when I came across Lucian Matis' S/S 2012 collection and saw an  emerging Canadian designer spill his creative guts in the form of weave-work, fluffy-snow-on-acid and 'shard' strips of fabric. With dilated NastyFashionEyes, I Inherently begin to scope out the eye candy via Fashion Operation...   

Lucian Matis S/S 2012

    Regardless of the garments likability, you can't deny the beauty in every piece. The way every thread of fiber shines in the light, the fabric flows like air itself and how each outfit seems to have effortlessly created itself. That is how skilled the hands behind each garment really is. Here you see various forms of fabric manipulation, one of which that I am particularly fond of are the said 'shard' strips of fabric and the weave-work. And if you were the one to start an avalanche, rolling down the mountain, how hot would you look with one of those snowballs-on-acid numbers?


    But the one outfit that sold me on Canadian haute couture was yet again, another 'married and buried' outfit.

Ahh why I can't I just appreciate things that don't cost two kidneys and a liver?

  24. Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the shell to her ear
    and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.

    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but
    I had to tell someone!
