Dear Customers:
We closed the store early yesterday,(approx 2pm) just before the heart of the protest hit queen street west. Our staff were able to make it off of queen just before things turned violent.
Our store is in safe condition and encountered no damages. We are remaining closed today as advised by Toronto Police Services, we feel it is in the best interest of our customers and staffs safety. Most stores on Queen Street are closed at this time. We will re open tomorrow, (monday june 28)business as usual at 11am.

G20 Fashions! Make protesting trendy!

When Toronto Star reporter Katie Daubs called and pitched the idea of doing a story on fashion for protesters during the upcoming G20 Summit, that has taken over Toronto, we jumped. Head Stylist and Manager Kat McEwen got right to buzzing around the store pulling looks, some that would not absorb tear gas or blend into hotel wallpapers and others that gave off a peaceful hippy vibe.

Featured in today's Toronto Star, favorite Fashion Crimes Model, Jasmine Foster strutted her stuff and just happened to come in wearing her hunter rain boots, perfect footwear for these G20 Fashions!

The cire tied-up dress is similar to PVC, but is more form-fitting, "to cut through the crowds," And Hey! the jewelry, embellished with designs of barbed wire and chains, could double as a projectile in a pinch.

This white PVC dress doesn't go well with a gas mask, so you wouldn't want to cause any trouble, But in case trouble finds you, the PVC material provides pretty decent protection for tear gas.

An optional bandana is made with polyester to protect from noxious fumes, but it also pampers the protestor with the luxury of satin. The Sailor Girl dress gives off that militant vibe, but says come and get me in a much different way!

This Boho dress with wooden accessories gives off that peaceful hippy vibe.

Parlour Salon is located at 6 Ossington, just North of Queen. The lovely hair artists, Brionie and Suzzi, were responsible for the hair and makeup at our Retrospective Party held at the Drake Hotel in April, for LG Fashion Week.

There will be drinks, laughs, photos taken, and an all around great time!

Come hang with the FC crew and see why Parlour Salon is our favorite.

Amber Ellert Rocks FC!

Amber Ellert is an up and coming hot new drag queen in the toronto. In fact Heroin Marks has named her the queen to watch out for. Amber Ellert is not your typical drag queen, often opting for edgier more rock based songs or a full on theatrical numbers, like the time she came out in a hospital gown and bandages.

Amber is a long time friend of the Fashion Crimes family, Amber actually lives with Carly and Frankie. Being so lucky to live with two Fashion Crimes girls has its advantages, especially when you all fit the same dress size. Recently Frankie purchases a Jezebel Wiggle with tulle in bright yellow and before she had a chance to wear it Amber Ellert was rocking it on stage and Crews and Tangos this past monday, check out the pictures & videos of Amber Ellert rocking full head to hose Fashion Crimes (belt, dress, gloves, hose, ect all from fc).

Add Amber as a friend on facebook and watch out for up coming shows!
