!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


those exclamation marks are there to display my excitement.

So when you think fashion capital of Canada what do you think?
I would hope it would be Montreal because that is certainly my inclination.

So why this talk of Montreal?  Wellllll.....

SOTE is making it's first appearance there!  That is right Sunsets on the Eastside has been invited to show at the Festival of Mode and Design in Montreal!  

We received the call that we were one of four designers from the maritimes chosen to show in Montreal a few days ago.  I was at work at the time so admittedly did a very poor job of selling clothing, I pretty much day dreamed the entire time.  Kirstin has to go do an interview for us for The Guardian  so I can only imagine how hard it was to concentrate on answering questions.  Katryna was in Ottawa so found out a day later then us which sucked but when she called me and told me about her reaction it got me even more excited. So needless to say this is one of THE most exciting things that has happened to us yet.  

I really hope we can all make it down to see the show in Mtrl because it would be a real shame to miss our first show there. But the simple fact that our  pieces of clothing will be there is incredible. I'm sure Montreal will show them a good time!

So for more information on the event go to:

From here you can see a little of everything including the other designers we are showing with.

p.s it's on St. Catherine street!!!  a.k.a best shopping street in Canada, in my opinion. With exception to University Ave., Water Street, and Birmingham Street( Where our shops are located).

because I am just so darn excited I've included another shot of our upcoming collection to be shown at Fringe next week GET YOU TICKETS NOW PLEASE!  we want to see people in the audience!  ( Shot by Patrick Callbeck, Make up by Ellen Connaughton, and model Kirstin Sweet designer)

Because you have all been such good little fans here is a sneak preview of our Spring Collection 2009 .  The make up was by Ellen Connaughton and the great pic by Patrick Callbeck.  
This gorgeous model is Allison Kelly who did fantastic for her first time.  Kirstin Sweet, yes that's right, our very own designer also modeled for this shoot and did fab as well.  

Hope you come to the Fringe to check out our stuff.  We show may 15th at 6 30 and may 17th at 2.  It would make us SO happy to see you all there!
