The first Canadian Fashion's Night Out didn't ease into the idea of celebrating.
It was more of a cannonball off of the highest diving tower, if you know what we mean. Credit cards were swiped, cocktails were sipped and whole lot of photos were snapped.
In Toronto, the night of celebration came on the same day as the official TIFF launch which created a whole lot of buzz in the streets. With major parties hosted by Fashion Group International, Toronto Fashion Incubator, Holt Renfrew (happy 175!), eLUXE and the return of the bazaar -- which is a three-day shopping event featuring many Canadian designers at the Burroughs Building -- the options of what to do on September 6th seemed endless.
With other huge celebrations in Vancouver and Montreal -- which happened to coincide with la belle province's fashion week -- it's safe to say Fashion's Night Out was a reason for fashionistas to flock to the shops and celebrate what they love.
Without further ado, here's a Citizen Style peek at what they wore.
