Toronto Fashion Week’s best dressed: spring/summer 2012
Toronto Fashion Week’s best dressed: spring/summer 2012
There are many criteria for being considered “best dressed” by any person, website or publication, but what we were looking for this season was someone who wore an outfit or accessory with confidence, to a point where even if we weren’t sure we’d wear it ourselves, we’re glad they did. Among our favourites were: Suzanne Rogers, wearing head-to-toe Louis Vuitton with a little dash of David Dixon; Suzanne Boyd, wearing an original Mountie hat and structured jacket; style scribe Sarah Nicole Prickett and her sister Amy, who proved that siblings don’t always borrow each other’s clothes; and hair stylist Tony Pham, who picked the perfect accessories to complement a vibrant mohair sweater and an even more vibrant pair of leggings. Find out which of our stylish shots this week made the list for Toronto Fashion Week’s best dressed.

- Hair stylist Tony Pham always takes risks, and they seem to almost always pay off—we love how he paired this seafoam-like mohair sweater with studded accessories and some highlighter leggings. Everything he’s wearing should clash, but somehow it all comes together, and we think that’s pretty impressive. (Image: Erin Simkin)

- Flaneur Laurent Fort brought a new outfit every day of Toronto Fashion Week—each one more flamboyant than the next. Although not subtle, his confidence is what sold us, as he ever-so-regularly hammed it up for the camera wearing a fur placket, a wild bow tie, or any number of eccentric accessories.

- These sisters (Amy, a student, and Sarah, a freelance writer) are doing it for themselves, and in such different ways. One’s a little bit country (in the best of ways), pairing a clunky black shoe with a dainty dress, and the other one is rock and roll, showing flesh and letting her hair fly willy-nilly.

- <em>Fashion</em> magazine’s fashion director Susie Sheffman never goes out of style. Here she’s wearing a custom Roots varsity jacket with a pair of jeans and a T-shirt, which beats any jewel-encrusted socialite any day. (Image: Erin Simkin)

- Beauttah, a Kenyan-born transgendered model, is always one of our favourites. Sure, she might sling a muppet fur over her arm, but we’re more into the flashy dress full of colour, perfect coif and attitude-filled stare. (Image: Erin Simkin)

- While most stylists, aspiring actresses and ham models decided to dress in the wildest way possible, designer Maryam Keyhani and Holt Renfrew public relations director Moira Wright chose to dress a bit more chic—a print with a solid blue pant is fun without making us want to vomit, and we’re always a fan of Keyhani’s chapeaux.

- <em>Zoomer’</em>s Suzanne Boyd is easily one of our favourite people every night of fashion week, showing up in big furs and stacked heels. She’s a woman who gets attention wherever she goes, and we chose Boyd as one of our best dressed because she really pushes the buy-Canadian message—she’s seen here wearing an authentic Mountie hat and a great double-breasted jacket with a structured shoulder.

- Not everyone can be eccentric, and Sarah Gadon is poised in red, looking dainty in an over-the-knee trimmed dress. Everything about this look says comfortable, from the barely brushed hair to the casual leather bag and boots. It’s the perfect off-duty look for a rising star. (Image: Erin Simkin)

- Only Suzanne Rogers would show up to Toronto Fashion Week in an amazing Louis Vuitton print with a club collar and pair it with almost dominatrix-like boots—also Louis Vuitton (we know they aren’t in the photograph, but they came complete with tar-slick laces that ran along her leg). She may not always be on our top 10 list, but we loved this look and how much energy it had. She was certainly having more fun with fashion that everyone else that night. (Image: Erin Simkin)

- The grungy look of model Andrej Pejic is a sight to see: a wool trench, cross-adorned sheer tights (with runs, naturally) and an assortment of leather goods bring this look together, and we think it’s perfect.

Its a pity that the fur scum rocked it the best. I think those two would look even better without wearing dead animals.
Suzanne Rogers’face is hilarious in that picture. Thank you for the early morning laugh.
It is me or were most of Kevin’s fashion week articles filled with lip service to his friends?
LG Fashion Week: a pathetic mix of Toronto’s biggest “fashion” wannabes and posers. PLEASE. This city is so behind in terms of fashion that every “new” trend is at least 3 seasons old in the rest of the world. But I guess we need articles like this to make the industry feel relevant. Nice job on the drivel.
Ditto to Cate. Also, on what planet do ripped stockings belong anywhere but on a street corner? That ‘structured’ jacket doesn’t fit properly, and ‘country’ style in the best way? You mean in a non-existent way right? Clunky boots and a dress do not a country girl make. And a classic red dress is only eccentric in Toronto, where apparently dressing in head to toe Vuitton is considered creative.
Biko does it again, Torontonians make it too easy for her. She needs more competition.
These people obvious don’t own mirrors. They survive on egos. guest lists, and friends at TL.
Next!
expected more of kevin’s friends. no fraser abe in jeans and a shirt? andrew sardone in big blazers? i’m confused too.
WE GET IT!!!! You are friends with SNP, now move on… and including Sheffman… smart… that will for sure remind her to give you that free varsity jacket from roots I’m sure you two talked about… so subtle Kevin!
Is that Biko a chic or a dude?
Keyhani and Wright, all the way. Always chic. Two very lovely women.
Loving those shoes on Biko! Does anyone know where they are from?
Kevin Nauls is not qualified to speak about fashion, let alone Toronto’s best dressed. It is clear his choices are based solely on the promotion of his small circle of friends (eg.Sara Nicole Prickett), combined with his attempts to kiss the butts of irrelevant fashion has beens, such as Suzanne Boyd. Please find a non-cliquey, real fashion editor with a fresh unbiased EXPERT opinion. This very amateur work sacrifices the integrity & credibility of a long standing magazine such as Toronto Life. I use to buy & support this magazine, but can no longer support such weak journalism.
love fash editors who wear only jeans. just stop. colorful socks dont make you fashionable.
Biko Beauttah, Suzanne Boyd and Laurent Fort seem to be the only really fashion forward people in this group,just calling it like I see it. How Toronto Life considered the rest for this list really puzzles me. They are just dressed like the everyday run of the mill people at the Eaton Center. Seriously, what’s so special about their outfits? Seriously!
