FLASHBACK!

Here's a slice of Fashion Crimes history! Meet Bill Kompf, who decided to take a stroll in 1940, in front of where Fashion Crimes would eventually find it's home.

Cinderella loves rock n' roll

An amazing event, in a fairytale setting.

"Popular Canadian rockers Broken Social Scene will add an indie twist as musical guests at the Canadian Opera Company's annual fundraising party, Operanation VII, Cinderella: Rock the Ball taking place on Friday, Oct. 29, 2010. This year's exclusive cocktail reception celebrates Rossini's opera, La Cenerentola, and puts a very modern spin on the traditional Opera Ball. Guests of Operanation VII will enjoy a night of dancing, rousing live entertainment, specialty cocktails and fine cuisine catered by Rose Reisman Catering.
Some of the highlights of this year's event include:"

• Broken Social Scene performing opera collaborations with members of the COC Ensemble Studio, giving indie-rock makeovers to well-known opera favourites
• At the stroke of midnight, guests will be treated to a performance by rising Canadian star and innovative singer Clara Venice
• DJs for the evening, Diego Bros., will be rocking out the dance floor
• Exciting new prizes for the silent auction and raffle to bid on: a seven-day stay at a villa in Provence; a weekend at the Ritz-Carlton, Toronto; a year-long rental of a Steinway & Sons baby grand piano; a Bulgari stainless steel watch; four tickets to a Toronto Maple Leafs game; restaurant and theatre packages and much, much more!
• A signature Cinderella cocktail for all of the princess and prince charmings

Tickets are $150, and include:
• Open bar on all three levels
• Delicious Cinderella-themed delectables available throughout the evening
• Hello! Magazine photo booth
• Murale and Calvin Klein Beauty stations

Dare To Wear

Another beautiful creation from the creative mind of Pam Chorley.
Here we see her daughter Jasmin in this years dress for the Dare To Wear Fashion Show in support of the Stephen Lewis Foundation, in effort to raise awareness for the HIV/AIDS pandemic happening in Africa.

Rupture: a Fashion Filme.

This video ran during Toronto Fashion Week, and had a special cameo appearance from a Fashion Crimes dress. The red side-ruff dress, the perfect cocktail dress for anyone who wants to make a sexy, seductive impression on the world.

Check out this video, directed by Renata Kaveh.

Rally for the Kids

A worthy cause brought Fashion Crimes owner and designer, Pam Chorley, out with manager Kat. The Rally for Kids with Cancer Scavenger Cup was held in Toronto, with honorary co-chairs Eva Longoria-Parker, and Hayden Hayden Christensen. The night was filled with celebrities, including Bai Ling, Mya and the Pussycat Dolls. It was another successful year for the charity event! Just have a look at Fashion Crimes' very own Amanda, snuggling up to her new boy toy, Hayden.
