Previewing upcoming collections is one of the perks of having a fashion blog. This week I attended Holt Renfrew's Spring 2010 Media Preview, hosted by Barbara Atkin, Vice President of Fashion Direction. Barbara Atkin has a great eye for details and I appreciate the contemporary direction Holt Renfrew has been focusing on.
For my international readers: Holt Renfrew is the go-to place for high-end fashion in Canada. As you already know, I am a Holt Renfrew devotee.
