hether she's covering the red
carpet or dropping off her
kids at school, Susie Wall
does it in style. Inheriting
her mom's appreciation of fashion at a
young age ("It was impossible to get $40
out of our mom for dinner and a movie
but she'd say yes to a $400 cashmere
school blazer"), Wall kicked off her
glamorous career in the film industry in
the '90s. Since then, the mother of two
has built her brand as a fashion insider,
interviewing Hollywood's hottest stars for
eTalk, appearing as the weekly style editor
for Chatelaine on Breakfast Television
and writing a weekly column for The
Province newspaper. Most recently, Wall
has signed on as a fashion personality for
national TV talk show Cityline and will
serve on the nominations committee for
the Canadian Arts and Fashion Awards.
BCLiving caught up with the style maven
to get her picks for Vancouver's best
shopping, the hottest local designers and
the most stylish Vancouverites (spoiler
alert: they're guys).
