LG Fashionweek Toronto Fall 2010: Pat McDonagh

Posted by fashionentrepreneurreport On Tuesday, March 30, 2010

Pat McDonagh loves women! A celebration of femininity that started with floor-length Russian-inspired overcoats in black and red complete with giant fez and mohair boots, and moved on to majorette-style jackets and leather pants. Padded shoulders kept with the trend, as well as wide belts cinching the smallest part of the waist. Hair was sleek with a sexy “bump-it”. Outerwear came complete with legwarmers and heavy cable scarves and an Amelia Earhart aviator jacket appeared with classic earflap hat. For evening, the veteran designer presented soft white dresses: an eyelet sheath, wool shift, and a suit that would do Chanel proud. Besides a few editorial pieces, the collection was eminently wearable.
