What is style, really? In this vibrant, heartfelt and hilarious conversation, Aly Velji sits down with legendary stylist and creative force Peter Papapetrou to talk about how fashion, identity, and creativity evolve across decades, cities, and life chapters.
From the basement fashion shows of his youth to styling for The Marilyn Denis Show and working with couture houses like Giambattista Valli, Peter opens up about the hustle and the joy behind his colorful career.
Now splitting his time between Toronto and Miami, Peter shares how marriage, moving abroad, vintage fashion in Amsterdam, and reconnecting with silence reshaped his creative vision—and why he’s finally turning the lens on himself.
In This Episode:
Peter’s incredible journey including his humble beginnings as a kid to becoming a Canadian style icon
Fashion vs. Style: The soul of how we show up
His favourite memories from being on The Marilyn Denis Show
Vintage shopping in Amsterdam & rediscovering personal style
What TV taught him about storytelling, humility, and impact
Grounding rituals, creative freedom, and what’s next
