That's a Wrap! The Last Days of Western Canada Fashion Week

Another successful season of Western Canada Fashion Week ended Thursday night and I know I'm late in posting this but I wanted to highlight the designers that really stood out for me on the last three days. (To see highlights from the beginning of the week click here.) First up: Malorie Urbanovitch who never disappoints! Her F/W 2012 collection was full of beautiful pieces in earthy tones and forest greens. Click here to see the video.

I adored this skirt. I have to say as much as I liked this collection, my favorite designs of Malorie's are from her Spring/Summer 2012 line which, lucky for me (and other Edmontonians) is now available at Coup Boutique!

I really enjoyed Derek Jagodzinsky's F/W 2012 LUXX collection, which was very structured and cohesive, with a perfect color palette for the season. What I love about Derek's designs is that they are always gorgeous, modern and absolutely wearable.

I loved the jackets in Calgarian Aleem Arif's Bano eeMee F/W line. They were beautifully constructed. I especially want that jacket on the left! ; )

My favorite collection this season was Angelique Chmielewski's. A native Edmontonian, she is now living in New York after studying at the world-famous Fashion Institute of Technology. Her F/W 2012 creations hit the runway on the closing night of WCFW and wowed the audience. I mean, look at these clothes!

I could see myself wearing every single piece! I seriously died and went to designer heaven Thursday night in the front row of Angelique's show watching the models float down the catwalk in her exquisite silhouette's. I really can't say enough good things about this designer and I can't wait to see where she'll be five years from now.

And here are some pics off the runway:

Now that Fashion Week is over my life can get back to normal and I can catch up on simple things like sleep! I do love seeing my blogger friends every night and watching the talent on the runway but WCFW is 8 days long every season and I think it could definitely be shortened to 4 or 5 days. That's my two cents.

I hope you had a great Easter weekend! Unfortunately I have to work today : (. To be honest with you I'd rather be at home eating leftover chocolate and watching movies on the couch. Or shopping : ). Both would suit me just fine right about now.
