Night two may have been short a few household names, but we managed to get some shots of the fashion frenzy. Stacey McKenzie was out and about hamming it up, but that’s yesterday’s news. Today we bring you hungry writers, lonely editors and people who would rather be anywhere but fashion week—oh, and we’ve got some happy, pretty people, too, for good measure. Check out the scene in a gallery after the jump.

97553 Bloggers, writers and other strangers: Septembre Anderson, Chenessa Lam, Chantel Bedward and Miranda Furtado have a hunger, and the only cure is a face full of fries with a spicy aioli.

97551 <em>Fashion</em> magazine’s Randi Bergman can’t turn away from Jay Manuel’s shiny hair.

Not sure what inspired TL to post the most terribly unflattering pictures of people. Surprised more so to see the nasty captions (bandying about pregnancy speculation?). This is coming across as rather petty. And no, I’m not in any of these pics, but generally have respect for TL and this feels like amateur hour.
Oh, calm down. Girl is clearly preggers. Laugh a little.
Ever attend Fashion Week? The captions aren’t far from the truth…
1) It is Toronto Fashion Week – who goes?
2) It is Toronto Life – worst.
3) WHO CARES
4) Stop complaining
Three cheers for the return of captions! Finally, a reason to look at TL pics! Hooray!
