Exploring fashion and self expression in the big city? It’s Wear What!? the webseries in which we style creative people at vibrant locally owned clothing stores in Toronto! Our mission is to find clothes that compliment our guests’ vision as we learn how guests have fun with their personal style and discuss how we find identity in what we wear.
