Canada was treated to its first Red Carpet Preview Event put on by founders of The Style Box, Amanda Brugel and Gail McInnes. The exclusively Canadian designer showroom which outfits celebrities, were joined by a star-studded crowd, on Wednesday, August 19th, as they celebrated the first in a series of Red Carpet Preview events in Toronto's Spoke Club. Musician Sarah Slean, actors Kristin Booth, Tara Spencer-Nairn, Amy Lalonde, Natalie Brown, Opera Sensation Measha Brueggergosman, and Pop Star Ivana Santilli, were among the guests who received a sneak peek of upcoming Canadian couture to fit their red carpet needs.

The intimate runway event, presented by Title Sponsor SPANNER and hosted by The Style Box, took cues from the display traditions of couturier salons and seasonal previews for gala events (e.g. the popular InStyle Awards Season Diamond Fashion Show) and was a first for Canada's fashion industry.
