This past weekend Ottawa's fashion elite were out in full force attending Ottawa Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2012. I had the pleasure of attending for a night, and thankfully that night was Saturday. The lineup was stacked; I had the opportunity to see all of my favourite designers, and was introduced to a couple of new ones.
I absolutely love Ottawa Fashion Week if not just for the runway shows but for the people watching - it's so inspiring to see how some people put together such eclectic yet amazing ensembles. I always end up feeling inspired to try something new and unexpected.
Please, bear with me, I have yet to master the art of taking good pictures with my iPhone, so here I give you a sampling of some of my least blurry shots from the second row.
Tribal Sportswear
DeMOYO
This is the second time I've had the pleasure of seeing DeMOYO and just like last season I was not disappointed with what she sent down the runway. Her designs were a great combination of chic and ladylike, but with edge; you know the DeMOYO woman is a powerful woman.
Jana Hanzel and Emilia Torabi
Their latest collection, Coup de Foudre, was a drastic departure from Spring 2012's Tubalange, but was just as stunning and superbly crafted - exactly what you expect from Hanzel and Torabi Designs. The line was incredibly rich, from the fabric choices and patterns to colours - lots of brocade, leopard print and velvets all in rich jewel tones - and each look was topped off with a chic hat.
Eliz Bourk
This was by far my favourite collection of the night, I want every single piece that walked the runway. The colours were so vivid and the designs so youthful and fun. From the first look to the last I was enthralled.

Rachel Sin
I also loved Rachel Sin's collection, but apparently my phone did not. Sadly, these are the only two non-blurry pictures I was able to get - but trust me her designs, as always, were stunning!

With just six months to go until the Spring/Summer 2013 collections, I'd better get started on my iPhone photo skills - not a fashionable moment to spare.
