Fashion-Forward Experimental Dining Events

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Toronto Fashion Week's 'Style Plate' Fuses Food & Style

— August 31, 2018 — Lifestyle
Alongside the presentation of luxuriously extravagant outfits, Toronto Fashion Week is serving up a new experience with an experimental dining event. In 2018, restaurants and bars in the city's luxe Bloor-Yorkville neighborhood are taking part in the haute couture scene with uniquely crafted dishes and cocktails that correspond to the debuting designer collections.

Entitled 'Style Plate,' the experimental dining experience is definitely a form of convergence, where high fashion and gourmet cuisine meet. For instance, Toronto Fashion Week opens up the floor for an aesthetic and flavorful combination of contemporary bar Amber and ready-to-wear label WRKDEPT. This chapter of experimental dining boasts a refreshing spritzer that combines "prosecco with the fiery tones of Aperol topped off with soda." The limited edition cocktail is meant to vividly mimic the bright and bold colors of WRKDEPT's collection.
