All you need is LOVE: is David Dixon Dead On?

Desperately Seeking Something is what Toronto does best. And in this issue of the Busy Bee I am buzzing for what's hot pre-fashion week. I don't care what anybody says, sometimes Toronto doesn't do it best, people! Now I hate to start off as the frenemy, but honestly, my friends. Having come from Montreal, it's true that Toronto lacks that hot fervour, warmth and fashion passion I've seen in so many other cities. So I'm here to inject some pomp and circumstance to our comfortably cliche town. So let's start with... the opening of fashion week...the opening designer: DAVID DIXON.

Question is: Will David Dixon be Dead On this year?

• Definition of Dead On: it's so right, it stops you dead in your tracks/freeze frame/pulse of lightening that shocks you with goodness/mini death/right on, dude!/high five zinger
  
• Conclusion of Dead On: it's what my Toronto wants.

That is VERY EXCITING. Mkay. I will be chatting with him backstage and have front row seats to his show I will let you know if DAVID DIXON is DEAD ON with the help of Barbie. Let's hope so as he's opening Toronto Fashion Week 09!
