TorontoEW Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Awesome to find information about Michelle Legare. I had the privilege to work with her in Toronto back in the late 80's before she left for Paris to become famous. She modelled for our small clothing line (will post some photos). I miss her, and unfortunately we lost touch soon after she left. I've heard from other sources that she is now living in London, England and has a son. Quote
spiral Posted January 17, 2012 Author Posted January 17, 2012 Wow, beautiful picture! And thanks for the info on Michelle. I look forward to seeing more pics. Quote
TorontoEW Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 And here's another shot from 1989 where she's wearing an outfit that we designed for a fundraiser with the theme of a Russian Ball. Quote
spiral Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 Stunning picture, I love its vintage look. How wonderful that you got to work with her. Quote
TorontoEW Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Thanks, everyone! Glad that there are a bunch of us who are true Michelle Legare fans Here's one more photo I found... Quote
TorontoEW Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 Ooops...forgot to load the photo. Here's trying again. Quote
