The Penniless Fashionista

Designers: Alecia Ebbels and Brieanna Soo

At the Penniless Fashionista, Canadian designers Alecia Ebbels and Brieanna Soo have a fun and whimsical outlook on women's fashions. We are shopping addicts just like you! The clothes speak to us. They say, "buy me, wear me, love me, I'm gorgeous," and we just have to give in. Whether it means pushing our credit cards to the limit, or eating Mac and Cheese for a week, we're going to buy all of the clothes we want (and we'll worry about the bills later). So go ahead and treat yourself...
 
You may be penniless, but you will always look fabulous!

Blake Matthew
 
Designer: Kyla Penner
 
Blake Matthew has been a creation by Kyla Penner that celebrates individuality and distinctiveness. Always holding personal experience close to her, Penner took what those closest to her expressed a strong desire for and applied it to her world of design. In doing so, Blake Matthew was created and going to sleep would never be the same. Created for the urban customer, Blake Matthew delivers stylish and luxurious sleepwear for those that know what they want.
 
Always designed with you in mind, welcome to the world you’ve only dreamed of, Blake Matthew, for the king in you. 

TrunkShow

Designer: Misty Greer

Clothing for those who prefer to be the spectacle, not just the spectator…
Fashion should scream perspective! TrunkShow reflects the modern doppelgangers of a dolled-up times past who see the world as their stage, and prefer their daily costume infused with plenty of glamour, rebellion, and provocation. TrunkShow is what designer Misty Greer describes as “future vintage” attire that’s meant to be worn, treasured, and passed from one seductively rebellious generation to the next. It embodies style and craft, and rejects the fickleness of fast-fashion, all while remaining low-brow and campy in spirit.
 
Wear your point of view!
