Insight, advice
and ideas from the
minds (and closets)
of B.C. professionals
by Alyssa Hirose
Walking away from discomfort,
according to a clothing designer
"The Devil Wears Prada era of wearing towering heels with
every outfit and ultra-tailored clothing is slowly waning. I see
many more fashion professionals embracing sneakers, oversized
silhouettes and slouchy thrifted blazers."
—Katelyn Woodburn, Street & Saddle
The hottest hues, according to a
custom clothing creative director
"This year we have been co-creating many
garments in the peach, rose and rich purple
colour palette. These are definitely trending
colours at the moment, and it has been
inspiring to see them come to life."
—Jason Sarai, Sarai Bespoke
Trends to watch, according
to a glasses store owner
"While in New York and Paris
recently, I saw several emerging
eyewear trends on the runways.
The resurgence of large frames
from the '70s and '80s coupled
with subtle indoor tints stood out prominently. The
aviator silhouette remains strong for women in particular.
Vintage-inspired eyewear from the '50s and '60s also
sells well. A trend that is 'outdated' in my store would
be the minimal rimless look."
—Sue Randhawa, The Optical Boutique
