TFW diary: Great Canadian staples at Lundström
Perhaps the designers were crafting their collections while staring out their studio windows into the snowy landscape of the last few months, but this seems to be the week of great Canadian outerwear. And from a brand known for their iconic parka, we would expect no less. At last night’s Lundström Collection, that very parka⎯done up in ivory with a fur-trimmed hood and paired with a tone-on-tone ribbed woolen dress⎯hit the right note on the sophistication scale. Coloured fur collars, sleeves and scarves were a welcome addition to the repertoire, especially a tres trendy grape stole. The major blip on an otherwise ladylike radar (skirt suits, metallic-flecked tweeds and bathrobe shapes a-plenty) were the velvet kaleidoscopic pants. A parade of Audrey-approved little black dresses, including a couple of special order gowns (a first I believe for the collection), closed the show but opened the door to a world beyond cold winter wear.
