Cause Célèbre: Let’s dress TIFF stars out of the Style Box

<strong>EMILY BLUNT</strong><br />The hot little embodiment of the queen in <em>The Young Victoria</em> has established a preference for all frocks strapless and snug, though not blatantly sexy. In a smart Mulcair number, all too likely inspired by <em>Mad Men,</em> she’d look like a martini olive. (We mean that nicely. Martini olives are really tasty.) It’d be especially smashing were she to return to the hellion-red hair of her <em>Devil Wears Prada</em> days.On Thursday, Gail McInnes and Amanda Brugel flung open the Style Box, a Canadian designer showroom and celeb-dressing service that aims to put the shine on A-list stars. And though the city’s socialites might not believe this, there is a higher firmament to be reached. So we decided to play dress-up and outfit some of TIFF’s most hotly anticipated arrivals—Emily Blunt, Jennifer Connelly and Penélope Cruz among them—in homestyle creations from the Box’s inaugural red-carpet parade.

  2. I read somewhere that it won’t be released here until October! I hope that’s not the case.
