Maanii: Vintage Cool
"I'm really inspired by Poli Styrene -- lead singer of the 70's punk band X-Ray Spex. She wore whatever she wanted in a time when women were told what to wear to fit a certain definition."

Pam Chorley: "More Is Never Enough"
Pam Chorley is the owner of Fashion Crimes -- a trendy boutique on Queen Street West. After 28 successful years of designing, Pam shows no signs of slowing down.
"I've only ever designed anything that I want to wear. It has to be feminine and flattering. There must be some kind of glam and vintage feeling -- whether it's the detail, workmanship or embellishment. It's not plain, less or minimal. More is never enough."
Pam previously appeared on TorontoVerve with her daughter Jasmine.

Jonas: Professorial Chic
Jonas first made a colourful splash on TorontoVerve two years ago and it's obvious that his cool sense of style hasn't changed.
