To say this week has been a major one for Canadian fashion is quite an understatement, with the likes of poet and all-around icon Amanda Gorman wearing a joyful yellow dress by Greta Constantine on the cover of Time, to actor and writer Benito Skinner sporting two-tone earrings by Warren Steven Scott all over social. Feast your eyes on Benny Drama’s “pretty in pink” look as well as a few other Canadian fashion moments we can’t get enough of.
L.A.-based laugh-bringer Benito Skinner (a.k.a.

And we also noticed Skinner’s sculptural earrings, of course, which were crafted by Toronto-based creative Warren Steven Scott.
