Lucia stepped into the boutique to find accessories for a bridal shoot as her last mission working as an intern. Little did she know what she was in for!

When you step into the boutique for the very first time, be prepared for a stimulation of color, pattern and shine! You could lose track of time discovering the magic of Fashion Crimes.

Darrelle London - "Bad" (Official Music Video)


I spy with my little eye.....
Something that is Fashion Crimes!
It's Darrelle London, Perez Hilton's new BFF, wearing our polka-dot mini!

A few months back Darrelle came into the boutique on Queen West, with Much Music VJ Liz Trinnear, (see story here) and shopped around for the perfect MMVA party dress.

The second time she visited the shop, she had bigger things in mind!
Here is proof that Fashion Crimes can fit any event. From prom, to wedding, to fabulous party; and even to outfit your very first music video!

Congratulations Darrelle, the video is fantastic!

The Skye's the limit!

Have a look at the fabulous Skye Collyer at last years TIFF

Two Diamonds in Yorkville.

Toronto street fashion photographer and blogger Nigel Hamid, the man responsible for capturing Carolyn and Nicole, has done it again!

His camera was like a divining rod, no doubt, and caught a picture of Fashion Crimes designer and owner, Pam Chorley with daughter Jasmine, while out and about in Yorkville.


The two look classic, and chic; casually dressed for a mother daughter walk around the trendy hot spot, known for celebrities sightings.

Liz finds her MMVA after party dress!

MUCH MUSIC VJ Liz Trinnear popped into Fashion Crimes, and scoped the place out looking for the perfect MMVA afterparty dress!
She browsed a few of the stores statement pieces that were sure to be a hit on the red carpet. But nothing caught her eyes more than the Jezebel Micro-Mini, in the claw sequined fabric. It was love.
This dress comes with a wicked curse. Those who put it on, will fall in love with it instantly. It's just another one of the magic moments that happens Fashion Crimes!

Frankie Goes Short With Parlour Salon


Fashion Crimes' very own Carolyn, aka Frankie, shows us how versatile her look can be.
The once cropped, brown, modern bob was turned pixie-blonde for an upcoming spread in Canadian Living Magazine.



The fabulous team at Parlour Salon, located at 6 Ossington ave, gave Frankie a total 180 degree make-over. The once luxurious brunette curls were lightened and she was given an edgy cut that frames her face boldly, and lets her beautiful features stand out! Frankie's color was conducted by the talented Franz', while the cut was executed with precision by Matthew.


What a transformation! The whole make-over story will be covered in Novembers issue of Candian Living! Watch for it!
