Truly living up to its nickname of **[Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/persol) North**, Toronto couldn’t be more infused A-list celebrities. Unlike in southern metropolitan where stars mingle, like LA and NYC, stars say they feel the Canadian city offers them much more privacy and respect from fans. Of course rumors still whirled that **Jennifer Aniston** and her ex-husband **Brad Pitt** were spotted at dinner together — you could almost file that one under world news — but for the most part, Torontonians have been respectful. The gallery shows some of the top **[TIFF 2008 fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/event-at-tiff-2024)**... so far.
