Lucian Matis 

In recent years designer Lucian Matis has taken Canada by storm with his various fashion design awards, and of course appearance as a contestant on “Project Runway Canada”. He is my favorite Canadian designer for many reasons, but above all because of his capability to flatter a woman’s shape through the use of masterful drapery and fit. His taste and sense of quality are impeccable, and differ from those of fellow designers in its unique source of inspiration.

The Romanian-born designer rocketed to fame after he placed second on the first season of Project Runway Canada; followed by appearances in just about everything from Fashion Television to Flare. Expectations were high after Lucian wooed the industry with intricate beading and knits for F/W 2011.
