Soïa & Kyo - Montreal Fashion Week

Soïa & Kyo fashion show at Montreal Fashion Week
Yup, I'm a little belated on this post given that Montreal Fashion Week was already more than a couple of weeks ago! My bad. The week of Montreal Fashion Week was a crazy week for both Sabby V and I as we not only had the shows, but we had to get ready for a work-trip to Miami a few days later! We've been in Miami for the last two weeks, and so that's why we've been so quiet!

So back to Montreal Fashion Week--we got the chance to attend the Soïa & Kyo fashion show at Marché Bonsecours. We were super excited about this cause both of us just looove their coats!

Here are some pics from their Spring/Summer collection.
BIG THANK YOU again to Peipei for being are amazing photographer!!!

The fashion show opened and closed with Karine Vanasse, Quebec actress and star, best-known for her role in Séraphin, Un homme et son péché (such a sad movie!). She also just recently hosted Les Jutras...  Anyway, we don't have a picture of her opening the show, but we've got a couple of her in the last showcased coat (scroll down to take a look).

I looove this coat too. Look at the detailing! And the 1/2 or 3/4 sleeves are good for spring/summer for sure!

Montreal Fashion Week - Eve Gravel

Sabby V and I attended the Eve Gravel fashion show during Montreal fashion week.

Quebecer Eve Gravel was our COUP DE COEUR!

The spring/summer collection was young and was like a light summer breeze. The outfits alluded to a summer wedding, innocence, a bit of '70s - a bit of '60s... The outfits were amazing and had that girly yet tomboy-ish look to them. Here are some pictures (taken by our amazing friend and photographer Peipei):

She opened the show with a summer bride. What a way to open the show with a bang!

All the outfits had some cute headgear: headbands, flowers, Elizabethan looking caps...

Dress to Kill Magazine party & Designers Remix

After the Createurs Francais fashion show at Marche Bonsecours, Sabby V and I headed to Hotel W for the Dress to Kill Magazine party. We had to work early the next morning and so we couldn't stay very late! Nonetheless, we were able to get some pictures of the models wearing Designer Remix clothing. Here are some pics:















And these three girls were french fashionistas at the party that night. We loved their style and wanted to get a picture of them! We spoke to them after and they were the sweetest things ever!
Merci pour la photo!



Montreal Fashion Week: Les Createurs Francais

Sabby V and I bought tickets to Montreal Fashion Week's 'Les Createurs Francais' fashion show on Tuesday. The show was an interesting eclectic mix of designers from France.

Here are some pictures from the show (I took them myself, so they aren't the greatest quality...!):










































Our fave designer was likely the last one of the night, David Kurtis (the dresses)
What do you think?
