Canada’s VIVIENNE POY Rare Vintage Short Sleeve Knit Sweater

The Toronto designer was known for her exquisite knits; this gem was likely sold at her Yorkville Boutique💫 and one of a kind. Canada is known for diverse and empowered women. Vivienne May Poy (née Lee) made waves when she was appointed to the Canadian Senate in 1998 by Jean Chretien. We often wonder how these influential women get their start. Did Dr. Poy always want to have a Doctorate in Law? Did her parents influence her decisions to dream big, to break ground? What choices led her down this path? Dr. Poy’s first love was Art. Vivienne Poy Mode in 1981 after completing a Fashion Arts diploma at Seneca. Her business was soon met with success. For fourteen years, Vivienne Poy Mode was sold at Yorkville and wholesale across Canada, the U.S. and Japan. 𝚅𝚒𝚟𝚒𝚎𝚗𝚗𝚎 𝙿𝚘𝚢 𝚒𝚜 𝚊 𝙲𝚊𝚗𝚊𝚍𝚒𝚊𝚗 𝚋𝚞𝚜𝚒𝚗𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚠𝚘𝚖𝚊𝚗, 𝚊𝚞𝚝𝚑𝚘𝚛 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚙𝚑𝚒𝚕𝚊𝚗𝚝𝚑𝚛𝚘𝚙𝚒𝚜𝚝.
