Helder Diego FW 2016 Show

Canadian Designers Helder Aguiar and Diego Fuchs mixed romance with military inspiration for their Fall Winter 2016 collection. The punk-inspired pieces, shown at the Helder Diego FW 2016 show during Toronto Fashion Week, have hard edge looks, creating a military feel and there are soft blouses adding romance for a great mix. Brings back memories of the 90s. (I also attended Jennifer Torosian’s FW 2016 show.)

Several layered animal-print looks with leather body accessories created the rock chic aesthetic. All the women look very strong and independent with a touch of vulnerability.

The Helder Diego FW 2016 show stood out with edgy looks, ripped tights and Dr. Martens boots.

I loved that they play with colour, from blush and military greens to black. From leopards to stunning gold lames.
