On the second day of fashion week, the crowds are buzzing about the gorgeous weather and Lucien Matis’ couture collection at the Royal York. The Arab Spring has swept its way into the fashion world, democratizing access to great designers as geniuses like Matis go from couture to pret-a-porter over night. Ready to wear shifts are drenched in inky ocelot and green feathered Quetzal patterns, and the famous Matis ribbon dress is revisioned in a prismatic print. His crocodile Kelly bag gets a biker twist with foot long leather fringe and fills me with pure lust.

Lundstrom pays homage to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Bouffant bobs are kept in place with crystal hairbands, and prim leather gloves with 3/4 length sleeves are almost festishized as Jackie plays Madonna to Marilyn’s whore. Chloe Comme Parrish evolve in an accomplished collection subtly referencing the dungeons of the Spanish Inquisition, with ball bearing studs and metal gauntlets.
At times the audience was just as interesting as the clothes on the runway! Looking forward to Dixon on Thursday! Happy Fashion Week!
