"It's more interesting to have just a picture of a small detail - then you can dream all the rest around it.
Because when you see the whole thing, what is there to imagine?" -Dries Van Noten
A little bit of leather and a whole lot of lace. Nobody does it quite like Suzanne Rogers - a Toronto-based fashion icon who has one freaking impeccable closet. There's closets and then there's Suzanne's closet - and take one peek through our gallery (describing it as "fashion porn" might be the best way to sum it up) and you will see exactly what we mean...instantaneously. As patriotic Canadians, we wanted to kick the week off with one of our nation's most recognizable faces (we've lost count how many times she's been featured in The National Post - each time her outfit more chic than the next). First and foremost, behind the McQueen couture and Jil Sander technicolor must-haves, Rogers uses her knowledge and connections with designers to help raise funds for a range global children's charities. Saying she's a fashion aficionado doesn't do her justice. She's brought stylistic powerhouses to the runways of Canada - having put on two major shows for Canadian eyes: Oscar de la Renta and Marchesa. And the best part? In the last two years, she's managed to raise over 1 million dollars for charities around the globe - while doing it in her sky-high baby blue YSL pumps nonetheless. And she seems to do it all (with Birkin in hand) while raising three beautiful children. And take note and follow by Mrs. Rogers’ example - we'd love to see more Canadians decked out in Moncler Gamme Rouge during our winters. Not bad for a girl who was born in Elliot Lake, Ontario (and a University of Western graduate) - GO MUSTANGS! With the help of Suzanne, we think she’s able to grab the international focus from London, Milan, Paris, and New York fashion weeks and shine a global spotlight on the runways of Toronto.
