Walk the Walk: Denis Gagnon F/W 2011 Collection

Last season, Denis Gagnon "wowed" me with his fringe collection and as a fan of his brand, I was so looking forward to see his F/W 2011 collection and of course, it didn't disappoint me at all.

Denis is saying goodbye to the fringe this season and instead, he is bringing the tulle, in neon colors, back to life! It's amazing to see how he uses black leather to cover the colorful tulle to give an edge to the skirt. Also, the design of the hunchback bummer jacket is unbelievable brilliant and you will have to see it with your eyes for that.

After all the dark pieces, the models are then dressed in colorful pieces like ponchos, skirts, dresses to create the energetic feeling to winter. I cannot get enough of the pink poncho and also the colorful wedges!

Overall, this was a very stunning show and I am very sad that not a lot of people were able to attend it due to the time slot. Now I just hope next season Denis will have a better slot so more people can see the collection created by this Canadian fashion master. He is definitely a shinning gem in Canadian fashion industry!

Pros:
- I love the use of tulle in this collection. I can say girls always look good in tulle!
- The neon colors palette is amazing. It is very daring.
- The bummer jacket design is still one of my favorites.
- The wedges are something to die for.

Cons:
- I would love to see more zipper design for this collection as this is always his signature.

Eye Candies:
- black wedges with neon blue details
- black leather blue tulle dress
- black bummer jacket with tulle detail
- pink poncho
