Party pics: The best looks from the Alexander Wang party

This past Wednesday, Toronto’s air-kissing fashion elite peacocked about in their best Alexander Wang jersey dresses to welcome the New York designer to one of Toronto’s humble fashion abodes (i.e. Holt Renfrew on Bloor Street). Instead of taking our cameras to the streets, we figured it would be silly not to take full advantage of having so many of the city’s fashion lovelies in one room.

We also had a chance to meet Mr. Wang himself, who kept it casual in a graphic tee and a gingham shirt tied around his waist. We wanted to know what goes through his head when he designs velvet and chiffon dresses (referring to one of the standout pieces of his Fall 2010 collection). “A big old mess,” he explains, laughing.
