L'Oreal Fashion Week for spring-2007 opens tomorrow in Toronto in a revamped MUZIK building on CNE grounds.

19 designers, including Pink Tartan, Arthur Mendonca, Paul Hardy, and David Dixon, and three fashion brands - French Connection, Fairweather, and Quicksilver - will showcase their creations for spring-summer 2007.

For the first time, L'Oreal will present its spring beauty trends for 2007 in a spectacular runway extravaganza called Fragmented Time. Also for the first time, Ford of Canada and the Fashion Design Council of Canada in partnership with L'Oréal Fashion Week will choose three Canadian fashion designers to create an outfit inspired by the new 2007 Ford Edge. 

L'Oréal Fashion Week in Toronto, formerly known as Toronto Fashion Week, is Canada’s most recognized fashion event.

Even though it's only 11 seasons old, fashion week in Toronto steadily attracts Canadian designers from all over the country.

L'Oréal Fashion Week draws industry representatives from around the globe, and during the last five years have presented more than 100 up-and-coming and established Canadian fashion designers to international and Canadian media and buyers.
