Toronto label Greta Constantine has been named womenswear designer of the year at the Canadian Arts & Fashion Awards.
The Canadian Arts & Fashion Awards (CAFA) gala looks different this year, and so does its CAFA 2021 red carpet. Ahead of tonight’s virtual ceremony celebrating Canadian excellence in the fashion industry, the style set got glammed up for remote close-ups in ensembles by their favourite Canadian designers in lieu of a live red carpet. Photographers George Pimentel and Jimmy Hamelin darted around Toronto and Montreal capturing the local looks and it’s a completely unique spin on a virtual red carpet.
From new mother Deborah Lau-Yu donning jewellery by J.Y. GAO, to Narces designer Nikki Wirthensohn Yassemi balancing tulle and sequins on a steep staircase, Canadian fashion’s finest spared no glamour. Anishinaabe activist and stylist Sarain Fox evinces bird-like energy in a lush forest, while Myles Sexton serves up a moment in an extravagant David Dunkley headpiece and Montreal-made Denis Gagnon dress. Each is an exhibit of its own.

Famous moms in Toronto, Ontario and Canada had a Mother s Day for the books this year, getting shouted out across social media with words of appreciation for everything they do.
Not all Mother s Day wishes result in a flurry of likes and retweets, but they do for celebs and their well-known moms.
Happy Mother’s Day! I’m thinking of two moms in particular today - my own, who has taught me so much and shown me what it means to be strong, and Sophie, who inspires me every day and fills our family with unconditional love. Je vous aime beaucoup. pic.twitter.com/NUVDcXlusx
However, I do look back at a joke I made on
Saturday Night Live in 2014 and I very much regret making that joke. It was a terrible joke, honestly. And I also look back to that interview in 2018 where I comment that I would keep working with James, and the truth is that I have not and I do not plan to right now. I don t know if I can define [our friendship and professional relationship] right now during this interview. I can say it has changed many things in our relationship and our dynamic. SNLYouTube [It s painful] but not as painful and difficult as it is for a lot of other people involved. I have no pity for myself in this situation.
