Day Two at Toronto Men’s Fashion Week, or TOM*, and Burntlime Canada’s debut was a show stopper! You would never know the March 10th show was at that oh so tricky opening time slot by looking the audience full of excited family, friends, and fans, including Kat McNamara and Dominic Sherwood from the hit Netflix show Shadow Hunters, Sony Music recording artist Langston Francis, and Toronto Raptors Assistant Coach Harry Onochie Ezenibe. Designer Albert Chow and business partner Rembert Koon showcased a powerful collection of both men’s and women’s looks.

Developed in 2011, Burntlime Canada has been quietly making a name for itself in the suburbs of Markham and Niagara, where Chow and Koon operate two of their premium clothing boutiques, I.N. Surplus. True to their brand, the FW18 collection incorporates water repellant, anti-static fabric technology into luxury pieces, mixing eye-catching fabrics with ethically sourced fur trims. Standouts of the collection included a 2018 limited edition camo print bomber, and the innovative Uranium 3-in-1 jacket. The Burntlime Uranium transitional jacket was inspired by Chow’s own life and the need for outerwear that worked with the ever-changing Canadian weather. “I was inspired when I was shopping with my family one day, and I needed a jacket that was light enough to wear in the mall, but warm enough for me to get to my car," Chow said. "So, every piece needed to be practical and fashionable. Listen, I’m a family man, but that doesn’t mean I have to give up my personal style. I want to invest in a good piece of clothing, which is stylish and versatile enough to take me into next season.”

Burntlime Canada continues to draw inspiration from the Canadian marketplace and will be answering the growing demand for alternatives to animal products by incorporating synthetic downs for FW19’s collection and creating a brand new waterproof collection for SS19.
