Clothes Minded: Solving Your Daily Style DilemmasGabriele Pizzale, lifelong fashionista, fashion design graduate, and industry insider who used to sew her own outfits just to prove a point, is here to rescue your wardrobe. She firmly believes that great style has zero to do with fleeting trends or astronomical price tags. True style is already inside you, just begging for a breakout.

Bring your burning fashion dilemmas to this candid, no-nonsense Q&A session. Gabriele is tackling the hard questions: What actually flatters your gorgeous body type? Which colours make you look alive (and which ones to banish forever)? And which trends are worth your hard-earned cash versus the ones that belong in the clearance bin?

Ditch the fashion anxiety, grab a seat, and learn how a strategic closet edit and mindful shopping can transform your daily look from "meh" to magnificent.

TanteQ Revue (pron. ā€˜TON-te Cue Review)
Experimenting with and altering her own clothes since high school, Annette has worked in and around the fashion industry for decades including the organizing committee for The Wearable Art Show in Oakville, one of the longest running, solely dedicated to wearable art shows in Canada.

She began TanteQ Revue in 2020 where her focus is on upcycling denim for all ages and genders. Using only remnant ends, scraps, off-cuts and thrifted and vintage fabric, each piece finds its individuality and tells a story. Recycling, repurposing and simply wearing things longer is the responsible thing to do.

As she always says ā€˜life is too short to wear boring clothes!’
