At fashion week events, there are the it girls and the showgirls, and then there are the girls who look fantastic even when they’re not in the spotlight. We look at some of the men and women who fight for our attention, and those who couldn’t care less. See our full roundup of looks in the gallery below.
63318 We've been lusting after Sheffman's Prada Creepers all week. She has been Toronto fashion week’s best dressed and she didn’t need to choke herself in fur to do it. But seriously, sockless in the front row? Everyone take note, Sheffman is our Anna Della Russo.

63317 Style inspirations: left, Robin Kay; right, Bud Fox without the #tigerblood.

63315 This is where Robin Kay makes many of her festive costume changes. We like to imagine she flies the cast of now defunct <em>Queer Eye for the Straight Guy</em> in to handle her styling, because that's the only way to explain certain, um, choices.

63314 We’ve never seen lesions as an inspiration before, but somehow Kay makes that statement with a pair of tights. Wearing what appears to be a nightgown, Kay effortlessly tops the look with glitzy jewels, a cuff and elegant black fur. We're not sure where she’s going or how she’s getting there, but we'd love to go along for the ride.

63313 Sparks is always one of the best-dressed men at Toronto fashion week, because more often than not he's wearing his own designs. We like the plaid lining on his jeans, but we love that he's not counting how many more attendees he had at his own show (note the empty bleachers).

63312 Even at 90, Lynne Tyrell kicks all the fame-crazed bloggers to the fourth and fifth rows. Known for once owning a boutique, she can always be found at a fashion event wearing a big grin (or sometimes sleeping).

63311 We like Campbell’s nonchalance, and we love her flare for colour. Seen here in a vibrant grandma knit, she finishes the Fern Mayo look with a pair of sexy green heels. She's been voted best front row face in a poll conducted solely by us. (Image: Stefania Yarhi) Jenn Campbell of Flare Magazine https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Jenn-Campbell.jpg https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Jenn-Campbell.jpg https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Jenn-Campbell.jpg 624 936 [] https://torontolife.com/style/the-scene-top-12-looks-on-day-three-of-lg-fashion-week-and-a-sneak-peek-at-robin-kays-trailer/slide/jenn-campbell/ jenn-campbell 0 0
63310 After the schedule delay caused by the Jay Manuel show, we heard Beker griping on her cellphone . Yet here she looks as sunny as can be in a fantastic white blazer and some sort of animal-skin heels. We hated waiting too, but we didn't look this fantastic. (Image: Stefania Yarhi) Jeanne Beker https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Jeanne-Beker.jpg https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Jeanne-Beker.jpg https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Jeanne-Beker.jpg 624 936 [] https://torontolife.com/style/the-scene-top-12-looks-on-day-three-of-lg-fashion-week-and-a-sneak-peek-at-robin-kays-trailer/slide/jeanne-beker-4/ jeanne-beker-4 0 0
63309 These are a few of our least favourite things: pink and black houndstooth, the ubiquitous Louis Vuitton handbag and Pepto-pink heels befitting Jessica Simpson.

63346 We don't know who you are, but we love your raw rope belt and tiered monochromatic skirt. Keep up the good work, <span style="text-decoration:line-through">Thora Birch</span> whoever you are.

63308 We barely recognized <em>Breakfast Television</em>’s Pugliese (see: tan). We like the glossy belt, the bracelets and the heels, but we're not too thrilled by these matching cropped leather jackets. We're sure they had a great time at Muzik to cap the evening. (Image: Stefania Yarhi) Dina Pugliese https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Dina-Pugliese.jpg https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Dina-Pugliese.jpg https://torontolife.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Dina-Pugliese.jpg 624 936 [] https://torontolife.com/style/the-scene-top-12-looks-on-day-three-of-lg-fashion-week-and-a-sneak-peek-at-robin-kays-trailer/slide/dina-pugliese/ dina-pugliese 0 0

The unknown girl is Brie Reid wearing her own designs.
Oh and let’s not forget the ever-prevalent Prada brogues! I’m surprised I haven’t seen more of them, but hey, that’s Toronto for you…
