Tip: Sign up for Torrid rewards to get discounts towards purchases and more…read more I have flagged visiting this Torrid store at Collection Outlet Winnipeg within the past year. I like that this chain has graphic t-shirts and larger shoe sizes. Torrid accommodates curvy women, which I appreciate. I don't exactly fit the demographic perfectly, but I can manage to wear clothing on the smaller side of the sizing scale. It's cool. I do like options. This store was clean and bright. There were deals everywhere. The best deals were in the back left of the store. I managed to find a pair of cargo pants that were regularly $109, but were reduced to $30. They looked like they would fit me. I wasn't sure because I had never bought pants here. I needed to find a fitting room. I headed to the checkout area and asked a female staffer if I could try them on. She was friendly, said yes, and led me to a fitting room by unlocking the door. These pants fit perfectly. The length and inseam were great. I could breathe in them. Yay! I looked around and liked a cardigan. It was lightweight, but Winnipeg was going through a heatwave outside that I couldn't look at any clothing for Fall. I found the graphic t-shirts. I liked the Care Bears one. Nothing truly screamed at me. It probably means that I'm content with my wardrobe. I found my sneakers that I had bought almost a year ago. They are so comfortable. It was one of my favourite purchases from this chain. I headed to the checkout area. It took a while for the nice woman to return. She was helping another person unlock a fitting room. I wasn't in a rush. It allowed me to look at the earring sets. I love them. They are comfortable and the designs are cute. I recommend signing up for Torrid rewards. I got an additional $10 off my purchase when I was here. My pair of cargo pants were $20 after all the discounts. Yay! The best way for the staffer to find your rewards account is to provide your phone number. Easy peasy! I paid with a credit card. I tapped and I was done. She put my item in a paper bag with handles. I thanked her and happily left with my purchase. I'm pleased with my new cargo pants and the price that I paid for them. I loved shopping here. I hope to return the next time I'm at the outlet.

I'm weak when it comes to clothes that can be dressed up or down, pack like a dream and are washable. These pieces last forever.

Most are one of a kind and others are "one of a kind in this colour." They have everything from jewelry to purses and even hankies. It's not for everyone, but it's a great place to buy a gift for someone that wouldn't normally shop in a boutique. Go at the end of each season for blowout prices. I found a beautiful silver and pearl necklace for my wedding here and got half off. There is a lot of handmade and sterling silver jewelry which is good if you have alloy allergies. Some items are a bit pricey, but because most are handmade and original, you get what you pay for. Check this place out even if you're not going to buy anything.

The new store is deeper so there's more space to showcase the jewellery, clothes, bags and scarves and other accessories. There's lots of unique pieces and there is a huge price range so you can easily find a nice gift for yourself or someone else. There's also a lot of different styles available too from cute, professional, funky, trendy etc. They have a small section for men but I didn't see many cufflinks, something they use to carry more abundantly in the past. Service is friendly and laid back as I never feel like there's pressure to buy, which can happen in these smaller boutiques. Oh and they have a pretty good exchange policy if the item doesn't work out. The only downside is that there's no return so you will be stuck with a credit note.

This past spring Beverly and Kaylee went above and beyond by putting together a box of things for my daughter and shipped it to Vancouver for her to try - all the items were spot on. At Christmas they helped me figure out what to get for my colleagues across the country. Can't go wrong at October - you'd have to aim to miss - I'm always surprised that the price is lower than expected.

They sell mostly European brands especially Italian. Lots of suits and dress shirts and an amazing selection of high-end dress shoes. There's also a small section of sports/casual wear and outerwear. They sell brands like Hugo Boss, Alberto Guardiani, Poggianti, Signum, Van Gils, Pal Zileri and Mabrun. You can't miss this store on Broadway as it's a dark gray cube with no windows other than the display area. The interior is a darker space so it feels like you've stepped into another world when you enter the store. Service ranges from neutral, friendly to cold with a bit of a "I don't really care" type of attitude. You will probably get warmer service from Harry Rosen since it's situated in a mall and the sales people there are trained in that sense. Here, it's a boutique and it's almost like you have to earn friendly service. LOL. It really depends on the sales person you encounter. We had the best service from the owner but it also helps when my honey has been a client for years. There is parking behind the store though it's a bit chaotic as you're double parked behind staff.
