From Vancouver Fashion Week…….

SUGAR COATS brought a collection of eight coats to the runway. The abridged collection featured coats that were in differing silhouettes, colors, and prints. Overall there was an evening vibe to the coats. This was accentuated, by the models all wearing a lace masquerade-style mask.

 The color palette was mainly black and white. Other colors were incorporated, with a pinkish-red, gold, and a shimmering bronze lace. The coats also came in various patterns, featuring large-scale florals, damask, and hounds-tooth. The designer added small details to the garments; like polka dot trim and lace. A black trench-style coat with a large-scale floral border print in pinkish-red was a standout.

Sugar coats is a line that brings elegant and stylish coats to the runway. Solid construction and hand-sewn accents give these coats a sense of style. These coats have a timeless look. Many of them are well suited to compliment your formal or semi-formal evening wear. This brand is a true Canadian success story from a home sewer to showing on the catwalk of Vancouver Fashion Week.

Debbie made a beautiful plum coloured cape for me to wear in the spring and fall seasons. It is made from lovely soft wool and lined with a lovely floral lining. At the neck is a large coordinating button. It is a beautiful garment which I enjoy wearing.

Sugar Coats designed and sewed my daughter’s wedding dress as well as my dress for her wedding. It was a 100% positive experience. She was kind and willing to make the changes I requested, even taking in the dress the day before the wedding. She made us feel at home and her eye was skillful.
