"next time anyone is in Montreal, take a look, you thought Torontonians wore a lot of black. It's the whole euro-trash thing."
when i was in milan i noticed the same thing. All shades (?) of black, but oh so sexy.

for real tho , i think People would warm up to toronto if the city added more spice, put a little curve in that harsh straight line, add a little colour,funk, a little bit of a womens touch and i have no doubt peoples feelings would change about toronto. Charm and warmth, it would be cool!

Re: spice
I'm not too concerned what colour people dress in, but I do find the city way too grey and drab in the winter... a combination of the grey skies, loss of greenery and greyness of the cityscape. I wish something could be done about that.

Re: some visual stimulation, vibrant , or soothing
Grey is a more versatile and sophisticated neutral than black, since it shifts in tone depending on what colour you match it with - it adopts the appearance of the complementary colour: next to red it takes on a greenish tone, next to yellow it takes on a purplish tone etc. So it always remains in visual harmony. In a sense, it can do this because it contains all the other colours of the spectrum.
The outside of the Four Seasons Centre demonstrates this principle nicely - the grey brick walls change colour throughout the day in response to the ambient light.

Though the word "white" doesn't seem to have as many negative connotations as "grey", for most people.
Poor grey. So clever. So misunderstood. It does the job that other colours can only dream of doing, but never gets the credit it deserves - just abuse.

Im just curious to why there is a patteren in toronto for people to dress in dark colours , alot of black. If you notice peoples clothing in other cities like New york for example theres people dressed in brighter colours, Atlanta is on the complete opposite end of Toronto ,they dress in very vibrant bright colours, so help me out here ,why do many Torontonians prefer black?
Dark colours e popular in winter, and it's cold (or at least cool) for a decent portion of the year here.
In the spring and summer you see a large variety of colours and outfits.
