Exceptions aside, Montreal runways aren't exactly known for forwarding fashion, although insiders do admit Toronto Fashion Week is even deeper in commercial focus than the former. But, all things considered, there were clear gems sprinkled throughout Montreal Fashion Week's Fall/Winter opener yesterday evening as held at Arsenal, MFW's headquarters.
