Toronto Fashion Week: Vawk Fall 2013

Sunny Fong’s ‘Nordic Fauna’ fall collection for Vawk was a riff on Canadian iconography (a.k.a. winter) paired with Scandinavian minimalism. As Fong laughingly explained to me over coffee a few weeks ago, the designs came together somewhere between hunting and Ikea, an incongruous duo that turned into classic and impeccably tailored clothes.
