Canadian Fashion Inspiration {Orange by Angela Chen}

{Oh my! To think I missed out on viewing this collection first hand! Unfortunately, I had too many obligations at work. Reviews are in and Orange by Angela Chen's F/W 10 collection is creating quite a stir. What's not to love. Organza, draping, asymmetrical cuts, bell sleeves and use of ribbon ties are all examples of how the designer put her stamp of femininity and simplicity in classics that will endure with time, making this collection worth investing in. On a side note, one Canadian daily noted that Vogue Italia was represented in the audience! Well done, Ms. Chen!}
