Vancouver springs forward

As New York, London, and Milan fashion weeks wrap up for another season, Vancouver recently hosted its very own sartorial celebration, BC Fashion Week. While the line-up was fairly disappointing–particularly because local favourites such as Evan & Dean, Mellinda-Mae Harlingten, and Christina Darling chose either to show only in Toronto or, alas, not at all–those designers that did present their spring lines showed relatively strong collections.
