I ran into Chris Tyrell from HOAX COUTURE on Queen West last week. Chris goes way back to the intoxicating disco nights at Tobascos in Hull Quebec in the 80's. Chris Tyrell and Jim Searle were already at the beginning stages of cobbling HOAX together. "HOAX is consistently voted Best in Toronto as fashion designers, tailors and dressmakers."
Photos below are from their Spring Collection Fashion Show at the Cameron House on Queen West in 1992. I took these photos using a mini Pentax camera with 110film - blew heat on the back of the camera to distort the colors - these images are un-retouched, no photoshop straight out of the camera.
