Fantasy Fashion Show Hits the Mark, Oct 2, 2006
1313 Queen St West

Oh yes this fashion show was all about fantasy fashion. Fashions last seen on the set of Battlestar Galactica or Star Trek, in some freaky intergalactic bar episode. On show for the audience was: tattooed nudity in skimpy shorts; shaman worship rituals with bald men brandishing twigs and feathers; alien looking men totally covered in extreme body-paint designs; a huge ball gown made entirely from hair; dresses made from balloons; and possessed models acting like little girls cutting away at each others clothes. Whew, and that is just the summary!

But why not have some fun with fashion…does it all have to be practical and wearable? Hmmmm clearly lots of debate over that issue – but Torontostreetfashion supports all design endeavors wearable or not!

TSF design highlights were: Joelle Wall’s dress made of hair; design label Noxious’ fun Caution Bikini and Drunken Sailor gal outfits; Menno Krant’s body painting: and Taylor Flook’s deranged little girls cutting each others hair and clothes.

Here is a list of the other participants. Hope you enjoy the photos! It was a very entertaining show at times hilarious!!!

Designer Participants: Tara Bursey, Sean Reaney, Dawn Maillaux, Richard Preston, Melodie Carew, Ryan Alexander, Tracy Horvath, Cecile Champlain and Krystina Hunter.
