Katie Boland struts the TIFF Red Carpet in Cabaret Vintage - The Cabaret Collection Bijou Dress

We were so pleased that actress Katie Boland who stars in the movie Daydream Nation decided to wear one of our Cabaret Collection pieces, The Bijou, to the movie’s Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) premiere.  Katie is wearing the Bijou in violet, the classic lines emphasize her Old Hollywood appeal.  Check out her post at Blogto.com, her feature article at TheStar.com and interview with Elle Canada.

‘The purple dress was perfect for my premiere - Thank you so so much.

Melissa McClelland at Lilith Fair in her 1950s Cabaret Vintage Dress

“I have a brand new floral 1950’s dress to add to my Cabaret collection. It was the perfect, summery choice for my Lilith shows across North America.  For every comment I got on my lovely dress (& I got many!) I was sure to sing the praises of my favorite Toronto vintage shop – Cabaret Vintage in Toronto.  The folks at Cabaret dressed me for my wedding & they have dressed me for the stage & now my closet is oh so pretty.”

Its always wonderful having Star Reporter Rita Zekas in, and especially so when she brings friends.  Rita and comedienne Mary Walsh came to Cabaret last week to hang out on the divan and talk about her appearance in the Toronto staging of Love, Loss, and What I Wore.  Check out the full article in the Toronto Star.

We love the vintage retro style in Scott Pilgrim vs The World

I think its an understatement to say, that we really enjoyed Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s character Ramona Flowers in her new movie Scott Pilgrim vs The World.  It was fantastic to see a film that not only used authentic Toronto locales but also had a hint of authentic Toronto street-style as well.  We’ve picked out a few pieces from our racks that wouldn’t be out of place in the closets of either Scott or Ramona.

Check out Mary Elizabeth at Ramona in her film Scott Pilgrim vs The World

We love that Mary Elizabeth takes the time to pop into Cabaret Vintage  when she’s in town – not only is she a talented actor but a fantastic person.  We have advance screening passes to check out her newest film – Scott Pilgrim vs The World so if you are in Toronto tonight,  give us a call at the store before 3pm.

Cabaret friend and Lilith Fair participant Melissa McClelland will be playing tour guide to the ins and outs of the music series! We love Melissa’s style and she has also been spotted on the town with her Cabaret dresses. So stay tuned.
