Toronto Fashion Week hosts the country's most coveted designers, and the Arthur Mendonca Spring 2013 collection is at the forefront of Canadian fashion.
As the models worked the runway, the clothing did more then speak for itself; it invoked a strong presence the runway room had ever felt before. The presence of strong women filled the air as the clothing resembled beautifully constructed business apparel, made to be worn from day to night. But unlike normal business attire, the eluded sultry aspect caught the attention of everyone in the room.
From a mixture of whites to pinks to greys, the collection resembles much of the work of Balenciaga. The Arthur Mendonca Spring 2013 collection is a breathless take on the strong Canadian women in this country who desire sultry business apparel.
