| Posted by: Liam September 18, 2009 NEW: Josh Podoll A/W 09 Finally, a fall-ish day in Calgary! As our friend Liz(thanks for modeling Liz!) and I agree, compared with fall, summer's a nuisance that's been prying into September's business a little too much lately. For added proof that the patio needs packing-up, here's a new delivery for fall from San Francisco's Josh Podoll. As always, Josh has given us some instant favorites, each of which is made by hand in the USA using organic fabrics. Similar to the men's collection, these pieces will disappear long before the pumpkin pie will. Continued on blog… |

| Posted by: Kim May 7, 2009 The Silent Rage Yes, the Wrath Arcane boys are back in town and Worth’s picks for the Spring/Summer 20009 collection have arrived. The buzz about the label has created quite a stir in the fashion world amongst gentlemen near and far. With one glance at their sturdy structures and distinct detailing we can see why. The button treatments, hidden zippers and holster designs are especially unique to Wrath Arcane, it is sometimes difficult to believe the label creates and produces right from Cleveland, Ohio. Wrath Arcane’s mission is to send a message of quality over fad and trends. Each piece has a technical standpoint and designers Brian O’neill and Sean Bilovecky have come to be known as the designers to look out for in 2009. |

As always, Generra has created a versatile collection of pieces, which are beautifully constructed from the finest fabrics. Whether it's a silk dress, a summery top, or a chunky knit, the understated elegance of Generra integrates wonderfully into any wardrobe. And… From our friends at Lily + Jay in Vancouver, we've received some really cute (not a word I normally use, but in this case, it's inescapable) pieces, which scream "carefree summer" like only a light denim jumper can. Finally, in case you've had your eye on them, we've recently marked down our hand-woven silk scarves by Renee, Renee from Seattle. Guaranteed, these scarves will look brilliant when lit up by this Summer's so far reluctant sun. |
