Brandon R. Dwyer infuses spice into glam evening looks for Basch label

Brandon R. Dwyer infused a little spice into an edited collection of luxurious evening looks in his spring/summer collection featured Thursday night at Toronto's LG Fashion Week.

Save for a few menswear-inspired pieces, like a cropped satin tuxedo blazer, the collection from the former "Project Runway Canada" competitor largely stuck to delivering an array of more feminine, romantic pieces.

Chiffon and satin dresses boasted delicate detailing like gathering drawstring sleeves, shoulder ruffles and tiered pleating.

But the designer didn't shy away from adding edgy elements, like fringe on a jersey vest teamed with a hot pink mini or mocha-hued feathers adorning the bodice of a ruffled-hem gown.

Tunic and wrap dresses as well as wrap-style and boat-neck tops fashioned from jersey evoked a more cosy, relaxed feel.

Peach and aqua hues added pops of colour, notably on graphic print tank dresses, amid the largely black and white colour palette.
