By IRENE GENTLE The Champion Fashion has always been about Iooking good. But the Iatest trends go a long way in feel- ing good, too. That's because the latest news in fashion is caring. At least it is at Lundstroms, which bas stores in Oakville and Toronto. Theoe, breast cancer, women's issues, aboriginal con- cerns, poverty, environinentalisin and size bones of contention are aIl part of the package of looking great and feeling hetter. And ail were wrapped up tigbt at the annual Lundstroms breast cancer fashion show/fundraiser, said Lesley Goertzen, the dynamic former owner of Green Ginger in Milton.
