Toronto-based label BY THE NAMESAKE, known for its custom leather jackets, recently introduced an expanded ready-to-wear apparel collection encompassing tops, skirts, dresses and over a dozen styles of pants. “We launched ready-to-wear as a way to showcase bestselling pieces and new styles for both existing and new customers,” says founder and designer Rosa Halpern, adding that the brand will also continue to offer bespoke and customized garments. Halpern’s favourite piece from the new collection is the strapless Victoria dress, which can transform from a midi-length style to a minidress in seconds. “We have seen so much success—and customer joy—from our other transformable styles, and this day-to-night dress follows suit.” BYTHENAMESAKE.COM

Havana Nights The sensual mystery of exotic nights rises out of Canadian photographer JEAN-FRANÇOIS BOUCHARD’s latest book, The New Cubans , like ghosts of hedonism past and future. Known for roaming nightscapes in the after-hours, Bouchard, who splits his time between Montreal and New York City, captures a large cast of alternative Cuban youth posing in self-styled fashion inside their dimly lit retro-religious Havana apartments and surrounding tropical environs. “Most foreigners assume that a communist regime implies Soviet-era style uniformity, but that is not the case here,” says the photographer. “The knick-knacks that fill Cuban homes create maximalist decor that seems frozen in time.” Their reality—so removed from the clichés of Cuban cigars, vintage cars and Cold War imagery— illuminates a vibrant nonconformity, gender diversity and fashion identity thriving outside the limelight and the influence of others.
