Fashion Week Fall 2009 Collections: <s>Day 5</s> Judgement Day

Of LG Fashion Week, the last day is already a distant memory; not, however, so distant that we can get out of writing about it. But, come on. You can tell us. You're as tired of the faintly judgemental daily recaps as we are of writing them. And you know what's more fun than being judgey? Actually judging. So here we are: Torontoist's First and Last Annual LGFW Awards. The best, the—no, that's lame. Air kisses and misses? Something like. Read on, we implore you.

The Fashion Week Ahead

"Slimmed down" is rather an understatement, if you (like the rest of our city's glitterati) are talking about the super-light schedule of LG Fashion Week (Beauty by L'Oreal), the newly and unwieldily named celebration of local style. Seriously, this schedule needs to eat a sandwich. Usually we'd be dying for a turkey-and-swiss ourselves by this time on Day One; instead, we're eating a sixth bowl of cereal and watching nailpolish dry. The first—and last—show of Day One isn't until tonight, after Holt Renfrew's annual cocktail party (a mecca for media and other shmoozehounds). And the rest of Fashion Week: Recession Edition is busier but hardly strenuous.

At the end of Day Three, when we thought we couldn't walk another step, we didn't have to. An old-timey service elevator whisked us up to the sixth floor of the recently party-ready Burroughs Building for Evan Biddell's afterparty. Co-hosted by the Helders (who, appropriately, sipped RockStar energy drinks) and attended by everyone from laced- and tarted-up vintage shopgirls to cocktail-dressed execs, the cool downtown jam was a fitting celebration of Biddell's strong sophomore show.
