Couture gowns never look quite as at home as they do against the backdrops of Paris. They have an affinity: the appliqué flowers blooming across skirts in deliberate rows, like the formal gardens of the Tuileries; the ornate gold lace like palace interiors; and the full, billowing silhouettes like grand architectural domes.

But as much as Benjamin Kanarek’s (benjaminkanarekblog.com) latest shoot brings couture fashion to the pages of Canada’s Fashion magazine, so too does it bring the Canadian spirit to Paris in the form of model Amanda Nimmo. Ottowa-born Nimmo poses elegantly in pieces from the season’s most stunning couture collections, including the likes of Chanel, Givenchy, Alexandre Vauthier and Atelier Versace.

Some people's wardrobes are about a small selection of pieces that all fit within one aesthetic - Tania Braukamper isn't such a person. With a wardrobe that spans three different rooms, her approach to fashion is a mixture of current-season key pieces mixed with vintage finds she's sourced on innumerous shopping trips around the world's more cultured capitals. Despite a disparate approach to shopping, Tania is adamant that the key to mixing vintage with new season is to stick to key looks and colours that work for oneself. And it's a theory that she works into her writing for Fashionising.com, where she serves as the publication's Editor.
