Ask any fashionable Canadian for a Top 3 of her favourite homegrown designers and she’ll inevitably answer "Sunny Fong." The Toronto-born designer’s edgy aesthetic, signature exquisite detail and pretty-yet-bad-ass designs have fired up red carpets, the small screen (Fong won Season 2 of Project Runway Canada) and Canadian streets since the launch of his label, VAWK, in 2004.

I caught up with VAWK designer, Sunny Fong for iVillage.ca and true to rumour he’s not only nice, but smart, funny and disarmingly down-to-earth (read: Sunny, can we please be friends?)...

VAWK for eBay by Sunny Fong Launches Today

 

The collab we've been coveting for Fall has finally arrived! In case you missed it, eBay Canada has partnered up with renowned Canadian fashion designer Sunny Fong of VAWK to create an exclusive collective dubbed VAWK for eBay by Sunny Fong. The limited-edition capsule featuring perfectly edgy black clothing and accessories launches today, all for under $120, with free shipping across Canada.

“We are so excited to bring the quality and luxury of VAWK’s designs to eBay buyers, particularly at such affordable prices,” says Andrea Stairs, country manager, eBay Canada. “The collection’s seven pieces are truly versatile: worn individually they provide an instant update to any fall outfit, while combined they create a complete fashion-forward look.”

“I wanted to create an exclusive collection for eBay of great essentials that can transform a look from day to night, and can give someone a fashion moment,” says Sunny Fong, VAWK. “The pieces stay true to the VAWK aesthetic - each is inspired by our past collections that can be seen in our runway shows.”

The collection is exclusive to eBay and can be found at ebay.ca/vawkforebay.  The sale runs from today until to September 15, 2013, or while supplies last.  Since the tie already sold out within hours, we don't expect the collection to stay put for more than a few days.  Go, get on it! I already bought the capelet.
