Canadian designers are taking over the spotlight and setting the trends that will take the fashion world through 2016. Here are our top 10 looks from Toronto Fashion Week fall 2016.

1. Mackage
The Montreal-based label showcased its signature cool designs at a killer off-site runway, where its own winter wonderland was created at CBC’s Toronto headquarters.

4. Hilary MacMillan
Young, fun, feminine and chic — these are the words to describe Hilary MacMillan’s fall 2016 collection. MacMillan presented an array of designs oozing with watercolour lip prints, dark wool, fuzzy accents, lace and a whole lot of pink! www.hilarymacmillan.com

5. David Dixon
For the sexy, chic and sophisticated woman, David Dixon’s fall-winter 2016 collection presented classic silhouettes with eye-catching details.

9. Lamarque
Is leather the new denim? Creative director and womenswear designer Ifigenia Papadimitriou thinks so! Lamarque sent models walking down the runway in leather ensembles paired with silk bodysuits and stunning beadwork, embroidery and embossing. lamarquecollection.com

10. Narces
Toronto-based designer Nikki Wirthensohn presented several creations from her label Narces. The collection incorporated a fusion of designs featuring effusive embellishments.
