Toronto: Travis Taddeo Spring 2010

Travis Taddeo sure doesn’t trade in obvious references. His version of the French Revolution was filtered through a leather-wrapped lens of a high school gym class, circa 1982. Best were Tencel tees and dresses with sporty leather inserts, leather drawstring shorts for him and her and a perforated leather bustier dress that was hot, hot, hot--even if you’ve seen it before. We were less sold on the cut-off jean shorts and the high-cut leather (again) bodysuits, though Taddeo’s club kid audience will no doubt snap them up--no pants required.
