Petey fans and interested fashion parties!
I got into Toronto yesterday and have spent my time scoping out the best spots to advertise and deciding which marketing methods I should use for the promotion of our upcoming fashion show next Sunday, September 26 at The Velvet Underground!!
I`ve had the privilege of crashing with a friend in the Bloor and Spadina area right in The Annex so naturally that`s where I hit first. I had sandwiches at Sky Blue Sky which was totally amazing and stopped in at Honest Ed`s to buy clear tape (I brought ducked tape. BIG mistake.)After I finish this post I`m going over to Chinatown and then to make my way through the U of T campus.
I started putting up posters in strategic locations earlier today but I`m finding that despite the fact that there are THOUSANDS of posters all over everything, that Torontonians stare at you 
like you`re committing an act of vandalism when you wrap clear tape around a street pole. Thus out I go under the cover of darkness in jeans and a sweat shirt as opposed to my perfectly put together skirt/blouse combo for day-wear.
Is it bad that I brought one suitcase entirely for accessories? Hmm.
Between meetings over the next two or three days I'm going to make time to hang out in Kensington Market, talking to local Clothing Collectives about (possibly?) selling our tickets for us and having some fliers in their stores. I might stop some people in the street in the Queen West area to spread the Petey word and maybe make some new friends!!
See you all at the show on Sunday or back in W-Town next week!

Hello Toronto!!
Petey the Troll Apparel needs your support!!
We at Petey the Troll are embarking on a project like none we've tried before. Next week (September 19th-27th) we're leaving Windsor for Toronto-land to celebrate our new Fall 2010 clothing lines for men and women AND to promote our new line of accessories - including hand made umbrellas!!! But our foremost goal in our favorite city in the world is to introduce Toronto to Petey the Troll Apparel.
How are we planning on doing this??
With a fashion show!!
The weekend of the Clothing Show in Toronto is September 24th-26th, in which Petey the Troll will be exhibiting and selling our clothing and accessories! In honour of this fabulous event and in an effort to set ourselves apart from the rest, we're having a show on the night of Sunday, September 26th!
So we need you to come out to the show! Tickets will be either $7 in advance or $10 at the door and we'll be selling our wares after the show!!
Help us expand to Toronto and beyond by coming to witness this monumental event! Petey the Troll Apparel's Independent Toronto Debut!!
Petey the Troll Apparel is inviting everyone out to the new White Star Club in downtown Windsor this Thursday the 9th of Septemeber for an exclusive End of Summer Fashion Show!!! Petey the Troll Apparel will be teaming up with NeverHopeless by Rachel Gray for this s
pecial event! It should be super fun because this club is brand new (where the old Dean Martinis was!) and there's not going to be any cover that night. After the show we'll be selling those dresses so come get one for super cheap! We'll not be charging more than $29.99 for any of our dresses that night so this is a great way to snag some Petey merchandise for cheap and also helping fund the creation of our next collection this FALL!
We're still taking orders for Halloween costumes too with prices as low as $24.99!! Email us at vanessapetey@gmail.com.
Thanks and talk to you soon!
