LG Fashionweek Toronto Fall 2010: LOVAS by Wesley Badanjak

Posted by fashionentrepreneurreport On Tuesday, March 30, 2010

Inspired by memories and photographs of his grandmother, Wesley Badanjak’s FW10 collection, “Behind the Gates”, was based in neutrals with hits of purple, hot pink, and red. A purple silk satin shirt stood out as did a fuschia tunic-length cable knit sweater dress. Most looks were body-conscious and unbelted, eschewing the trend to tie at the waist, and accented by fur cuffs and collars. Ruching throughout and gathering at the backs of dresses made sure garments stayed as tight to the body as possible. An off-shoulder printed silk dress with chiffon collar was lovely. Gorgeous silk-screened satin in a red floral pattern was like paint on canvas.
