Going casual won’t be boring anymore because Ella Moss has a lovely new vintage stripe for you to devour. Made of silk with cotton lining, this delicate top works for both denim or fabric pants, long or short. I personally love the pretty flower pattern, super cute and feminine.

Summer 2010 will be hotter than ever! Some of the spring trends will continue while the sizzling months of summer will also add its own personal style.
Short, shorter, and shortest is the trend of the day, with summer’s dresses going from maxi to mini in the blink of an eye. Feminine and frilly isn’t going anywhere as ruffles continue to flirt and flounce. However, also look for bold geometric patterns and wild floral prints that are a throwback to the 60’s.
While the black and white spectator look remains strong, as does that red, white and blue nautical trend, color is really key for Summer 2010. We aren’t talking a little color either, we’re talking dramatic, in-your-face color with mixing and matching of multiple shades in one design. This summer’s ladies will be vibrant, sexy and utterly unforgettable in everything from a kittenish sundress to a drop-dead diva, thigh-high curve-hugging extravaganza. This year is not for the faint of heart - everything is big, bold, and beautiful.

The Montreal Fashion & Design Festival took a solid step toward healthy models with the Image Diversity show.
Montrealers got a stylish dose of reality last Friday at the Image Diversity show, a special event under the Montreal Fashion & Design Festival umbrella, which took place Aug. 4 to 7. A group of 15 models representing all shapes, sizes and skin tones paraded up and down the massive outdoors catwalk along McGill College Avenue.
The entire four-day event was organized by Groupe Sensation, the same non-profit team that organizes Montreal’s biannual fashion week. Its founder and co-president Chantal Durivage explained to QMI Agency that she had developed the Image Diversity event to promote a positive message from within the modelling world: “We cannot transform the industry overnight, but we can make small actions.
"In 2006, we decided to take a position around models that were too skinny or too young. We went to hospitals that deal with anorexia. The doctors told us that the main problem occurs with girls under 15. Since then we haven’t accepted models under that age. We also communicate with modelling agencies about the kinds of girls we don’t accept. We ask them to please collaborate, and they do.”
In charge of casting for the show, Artistic Director Sophie Lanza revealed that her search involved modelling agencies that had acting divisions: “I had to make sure they had a lot of confidence.” Instilling self-assurance, noted Lanza, was also the reason for putting all the models in flat shoes (Converse sneakers): “So that they could be comfortable.”
