Interviews By Kevin Naulls | Photographs by Francisco Garcia

25 Most Stylish

Toronto is a good-looking town, with no shortage of beautiful people in beautiful clothes. But only a few are bona fide head-turners: city characters who take fashion to the next level. We celebrate them with our second annual list of Toronto’s best dressed.

See all 25 of Toronto’s best dressed »

The Most Stylish list was compiled by our judges: socialite Stacey Kimel; The Society’s Ashleigh Dempster and Amanda Blakley; designer Jeremy Laing; and Toronto Life’s Kevin Naulls. Styling by Corey Ng/p1m.ca; hair and makeup by Vanessa Jarman/p1m.ca using Rimmel London and TreSemmé

    I’m sorry but some of these people look like a closet barfed on them…

  • Anon

    Hahah, agreed! More like worst dressed. These people are in a fashion bubble and think they are OH.SO.GLAM. But they are not.

    I couldn’t agree more with the comments above. I especially don’t understand how the Beckerman’s are consistently considered part of Toronto’s fashion elite. I think they look like they don’t own a mirror. Throwing on everything you own does not make you stylish or fashion forward, it makes you look like an indecisive mess. That being said, I do love Amina Said, Chloe Wise and Kealan Sullivan for being true style savants.

  • Stephka

    Seriously…. 4 Beckermans. Come on there’s gotta be more out there. Couldn’t they put them all as one? There are so much more out there.

    Stop trying to get on their invite lists and get out there.

    These are all wealthy folks! This almost shouldn’t count since it’s pretty darn easy to be well dressed when you can pay someone with style and taste to dress you and shop in the trendiest stores without a budget. What would be fantastic to actually see is those with true style dressing on a budget. That’s the true test of personal style. I’d love to see more representation from Toronto’s artists, writers, creative folks that weren’t born with a silver spoon in their mouth.

  • Rahul Rules

    Thanks for the inspiration. Some of them have great style and entrepreneurial drive.

  • Semper Communication

    money money money.

    (however great curating kevin.)

  • NS

    Apparently poor or humble folk cannot dress well.

  • Jacob

    majority of the people on the list aren’t considered “wealthy folks” and aren’t relying on expensive designer pieces to look good. read the clothing credits before you make any judgement.

  • pz

    jeezus h christ. these Beckermans look like they should start their own clown troupe!!

  • missbutter

    Where is Rolyn Chambers?

  • Methinks

    No one can beat Audrey Hepburn for style. Everyone on this list can take a backseat.

  • nocadrummer

    “La Croix sweetie, La Croix.” – Edina (or was it one of the Beckermans?)

    Half of these are just slapped-together label dropping exercises.

  • FILIPA

    I don’t get why I am NOT on this Toronto’s Best Dressed list? Uh… Hello?! Sheesh, what a snub. :D.

  • Aria

    Style is such a subjective thing. There are some bizzare looking people on this list. But one thing that all have in common is that they aren’t afraid to dress how they want. I kind of admire them for that.
