The last word on the Toronto Outdoorshow

its hours later, the colour, heat, smells, they all begin to blur ( a word of advice, the Textile Museum is just a block northwest of Nathan Phillips Square and it is air conditioned, not mention a great place visit) but there are still more artist to meet and more art to see.


Immediately below are Toshiko Ochiai and Louisa Pucci, creators of accessories; felted and/or embellished. Lampshades, skirts, jackets, scarves, wall hangings, nick knacks and whatnots. Pucci’s Collar’d Design and Ochiai Originals will soon be available at Nathalie-roze & Co. at 1015 Queen Street East in Toronto’s Leslieville as of July 15th.
