Toronto’s edgy glamour designer Catherine Curtis

Toronto designer shows Tempo Toronto how to look sensational at events – day or evening

Charming designer Catherine Curtis invited Tempo Toronto to her Yonge Street store in Summerhill to demonstrate glamour dressing for 50+ and 60+.

To wear Catherine Curtis you need on your to-do list: a little flair, a bold attitude, and an appreciation of finely crafted design in exquisite fabrics. Two friends of Tempo Toronto – self-described as ordinary women – show us how you can look sensational at any age.

Events come in many forms, and Catherine Curtis dresses women for cocktail parties, gala fundraisers, gallery openings, mother-of-the-bride occasions, bar mitzvahs, special lunches and dinner parties, fabulous parties. Basically you name it, and Catherine does it: but all in the looking special line of dressing, day or evening. In our opinion, her pricing provides exceptional value.

Who is she? A native of Kingston, Ontario, Catherine is a graduate of the International Academy of Design and she aso studied at the Fuji Textile Design Studio in Florence. After honing her skills as a design assistant, she launched her own label in 1995.
