ABOUT GRETA CONSTANTINE

Greta Constantine is an accessible luxury line of ready-to-wear womenswear based in Toronto, Canada. Designers Kirk Pickersgill and Stephen Wong, considered the 'jersey boys of Toronto', have rapidly accumulated a clientele comprised of international socialites and celebrities alike. The label itself is derived from the combination of the name of Stephen's mother, Greta, with that of Kirk's grandfather, Constantine.

Kirk, a stylist by trade, has worked for international renowned designers including DSquared2 and Neil Barrett. Stephen began his career as a costume designer for Susan Dicks and Co. by producing clothes for films including 'The Last Day of Disco', 'American Psycho', 'Glitter' and 'Hairspray'. With the combination of the duo's draping and design expertise, paired with knowledge of fashion forecasting, the two have been a creative and commercial success.

In October 2009, Kirk and Stephen launched the menswear label, Ezra Constantine. Their pieces challenge the traditional notions of menswear with the same contemporary boldness that has made their womenswear a tremendous success. Their innovative use of stretch fabrics, as well as their renowned contemporary cuts and designs, have promised to lure a male clientele that longs for garments that bridge the world between fashion and utility.
