Throwback Thursday: THE BRUNETTES Attend TOM* Spring/Summer 2015

With only a few days left to go until the very first, Fall/Winter edition of TOM* (Toronto Men’s Fashion Week), we thought we’d share some never-before-released photography from THE BRUNETTES’ archive of TOM*’s initial, Spring/Summer debut back in August, 2014.

The event, which was then held at the historic Fairmont Royal York hotel in downtown Toronto, brought together designers, media, celebrities, and industry for the best of Canadian menswear, fashion technology, and parties. Shown above in this Throwback Thursday post are some of our favourite moments from the event, as well as exclusive, backstage photography.

With so many unforgettable moments had from the premiere of TOM* last season, THE BRUNETTES can’t wait to see what surprises the event will have in store, at its new College Park location, when it kicks off next week.

HD Homme Spring/Summer 2015

Perhaps nothing gets the World MasterCard Fashion Week crowd going like a well-dressed man. If so, then the HD Homme Spring/Summer 2015 runway presentation delivered dapper gents in spades.

Taking our vote for best menswear showing of the season, the luxurious, Toronto-based label showcased extravagantly flamboyant and edgy looks reminiscent of Versace. Bold prints and colours, structured tailoring, and luxe, satiny materials are all signature trademarks of the collection that had WMCFW guests, including THE BRUNETTES, excited for each and every piece as they were unveiled.

Opulent Pool Party Attire: The Versace Spring/Summer 2015 Collection Heats Up the Runway

The Versace Spring/Summer 2015 collection sets an opulent tone for the season and reminds one of 90's nostalgia. The Miami-themed menswear presentation pays homage to its founder, late designer Gianni Versace, an icon known for his lavish lifestyle and love for the beach-side city.

Sand, sun and cocktails come to mind when looking at his sister, Donatella's latest showing for the Italian fashion house. The brand's latest collection is youthful, daring and makes us long for our next tropical vacation.

Standouts from the opulent line include baroque print swimwear, perforated denim separates and medusa head pendant necklaces that are a signature to the label. Models are styled to resemble Greek gods and pull of masculine one-piece suits and towel toga ensembles that show off their toned bodies and perfect tans.

Once again, Versace doesn't disappoint with this opulent beach-wear line that is perfect for luxe pool parties or rooftop tanning sessions.
