CONTRIBUTORS
1. Author LYNN CROSBIE talks about her Invisible Boyfriend in “Great Textpectations” (page 64), an experience she describes as “a wonderful encapsulation of the dramatic relationship between IRL and tech.” When not online, Crosbie is happy lounging with her muchloved dog Frankie as he snoozes and she reads trashy novels. Crosbie’s latest book, Where Did You Sleep Last Night, was released in the spring.
2. FASHION ’s Alberta editor, CAROLINE GAULT, wrote about the province’s best vintage shops, in addition to Fashion Loves and her monthly Alberta Notes page. When asked about her fondest summer memory, the scene is idyllic: “I grew up in a small Alberta town and we had an outdoor pool. We spent every day in the summer swimming, eating Popsicles, going for bike rides, one day blending into the next.”
3. Originally from Montreal, photographer ALEX EVANS, who shot “Girl Time” (page 82), has called Toronto home for four years. “I remember moving and being so excited.” Evans grew up drawing and painting, and would ask his mom to buy him fashion magazines for inspiration. “That’s when my interest in fashion photography began,” he says. “I started discovering and appreciating the artistic element of it.”
4. Photographer DAVID ROEMER captured FASHION ’s August cover star, Gal Gadot (“The Gal Who Changed Hollywood,” page 78), on set in New York. “She is inspiring,” said Roemer. “We are both of Israeli descent and had a lot in common.” According to Roemer, fashion photography discovered him, not the other way around. “I needed to do something visual. Fashion and photography was an amazing combination.”
