Fashion Week started with a bang last night. While it officially wasn't the first event of the week (that honour went to VAWK by Sunny Fong at the AGO), the opening night gala at the tents at King and Shaw was a major statement and hopefully a sign of the glamour, grace and good times yet to come.

1. Robin Kay Watch

After last year's drunken debacle and chaste apology, the golden grand dame of the FDCC is under a lot of scrutiny. So far, so good, even with the season's theme of "show love." At last night's Holt Renfrew industry cocktail party, Kay leaned in close to the microphone and put a lot of emphasis on the final part of her speech: "And especially, show love to each other." She seemed slightly slighted, not slurred or shaken, however. Lesson learned, I guess. When I raised a brow at her entrance, a colleague whispered, "I bet she's dry as a bone."
