Featured Designer: Jennifer Glasgow
Jennifer Glasgow's line has been a staple in Montreal wardrobes for the last decade. She's a wonderful, warm and funny person... and one of the brains behind mile-end institutions Local 23 & General 54. Last week, I had the privilege of getting a sneak peak at Jennifer Glasgow's studio and Fall/Winter 09. collection. Exciting stuff!
Above, Jenn is wearing the Tamarac dress from the new collection - like everything Glasgow, it has pockets (yay!) and we love her for it.
Below, Jenn is modelling the new Elderberry shirt. I love the scoop neck in back, and that she's taken the pouffy sleeve farther down off the shoulder. The skirt is the Greta, from her Spring/Summer 09 line... and on sale for 59$ here!
I love Glasgow's shirts - the tailoring is so unique and she has a real feel for noble and eco-friendly fabrics such as bamboo, linen and lyocell (a cellulose fiber made from wood pulp! how amazing is that?)
I am really looking forward to rocking some of these wool blend sweaters with swooping birds when the cold weather hits...
Check out the entire Fall/Winter 09 collection here!

I love that grey shirt with the scoop neck at the back, so casual yet sexy!
ReplyDelete@Kristen... Yes! Casual yet sexy. That is the perfect description!
ReplyDeleteOoh. I like the Sumac and Feathermoss dresses in the new collection.
ReplyDeleteIs her line sold at General 54, then? I think I need to check that store out soon.
