Dare To Wear Love 3!!

Dare to Wear Love is an annual gala fashion event to raise funds and awareness in fighting the HIV AIDS pandemic in Sub Saharan Africa. 24 of Canada's top fashion designers were asked to create an outfit using 6 yards of African fabric. Naturally, Pam Chorley was one of them.


Pam's creation is this stunning two piece dress modeled by her beautiful daughter Jasmine (pictured above). She is also wearing an extravagant cherry necklace (made at our wonderful studio on Richmond St), paired with an over-sized silver rose ring (easily the largest ring in the store!). Click HERE to view highlights of the fashion show.


Here Pam is standing with Jasmine just beaming with motherly pride! But wait, do you see that dynamite dress Pam is wearing?? It's a brand new piece to enter the boutique; it hails from Brazil, and is made from 100% recycled materials. To really appreciate just how unique this dress is, you have to take a closer look...

BAM! Those are pop can tabs!! How amazing is that?! Each pop tab is hand sewn to create a look like no other, and it is available in a jacket as well. We love how Pam chose a neon yellow, octagon shaped clutch for that always welcoming punch of colour. This trend setting clutch comes in black, neon pink, and neon orange, and as you might assume they are going fast! You best hurry if you want to take one home with you!!

Laila Biali Is As Pretty As A Peacock

Laila Biali, one of Canada's leading ladies of contemporary jazz, blew the socks off the audience at the Glenn Gould Studio in Toronto wearing a gorgeous embroidered peacock gown from Fashion Crimes. This strapless dress has an open front skirt in a beautiful, wavy black chiffon, that creates an elegant look even if you decide to go bare foot!! Click HERE to view her performance of "I'll Never Smile Again" off her album From Sea to Sky (also be sure to check out her latest album Tracing Light). The Fashion Crimes team had a blast working with Laila; she is sweeter than a basket of puppies, and she always looks dynamite in Pam Chorley's designs!
