On my recent trip to Montreal, I visited this store twice. The first time was just a "recon" visit…read more(lol!) with friends who were avid fans of Aritzia. For my part, I had never even heard of the store but, while here with friends, I was very impressed by the selection and quality of the clothing I saw. The prices seemed high, but I decided I would return in the next few days to check things out at my leisure. I liked the two-leveled set up of the store, too, with both an ascending escalator in the front and a grandiose staircase in the rear, with changing rooms on both floors. I also like the projected video of fashions displayed on the wall by the escalator and the friendly security guard who greeted me when I entered. The whole place had an artsy-type vibe to it. The clothes all seemed to be of high quality and none of the fashions were too...trendy or edgy. They were all more classic, basic pieces: chunky sweaters, cardigans, pants, skirts, belts and scarves, etc. (Note that this store caters only to women). I really like the Rasa bras with the super-thick straps (kinda dominatrix-y. lol! I thought they were super cool), so I got 3 of them in different colored trims on my return visit. They had a model with white strap trim that I really wanted but they didn't have my size (only a few extra-small and one large). I asked a sales lady on the floor (a young woman about 20 with super long brunette hair. Wish I had taken note of her name) if they had any more of these bras with the white trim in stock. This gal was super nice and friendly and said she'd check her computer. I followed her to the computer station where she checked and said no, they haven't any more of these particular bra models. BUT, she added, the Aritzia store in the Eaton Center (five blocks east) had three of these bras in my size! Argh. I had just come from there and was walking the 3 miles west back to my folks' house. Oh well, I figured I'd backtrack (despite the 90 degree heat wave) and go to Eaton Center to get this bra. I really liked it and hey, maybe the extra walk would compensate for all the wonderful Montreal meals I'd been eating (hahaha. I'd have to walk cross-country for that to happen. But I digress....). I wandered back to Eaton Center and checked out the Aritzia store there. It was way smaller and had a much smaller inventory, but was still well laid-out with the basics there. I didn't see my bra there - only the other models (which I had already purchased). I stopped a sales girl there, asking where I could find this bra in with the white trim, noting the other store said they had 3 of them in stock here in my size. They checked on their computer and said no, the other store was "mistaken". They don't have ANY such bras in their store, not in any size. ARGH. I must add that the sales gal here wasn't too thrilled to help me out. I got the distinct impression that I was putting her out. ARGH. So my shlep 5 blocks east was for naught , and I started the long walk back to my parents' house, passing the other Aritzia store on the way. Such is my experience with these two stores. (I'm rating the store 3 stars because I do love my purchases from here and their product line is sound. Just wish their sales staff got their act together and some were more pleasant).

In the 15 minutes i was there no one offered me help. I found what i was looking for and another similar style in case the one i had selected wasn't the perfect fit. I didnt have time to try things on so i got in line to pay. The 3 cashiers behind the counter were super rude and when i asked if my purchase was refundable one yelled out:No! Bras final sale! At that point the two bralettes were already scanned and wrapped up. Then i was forced to disclose my full name (???!) even after saying i would rather not to "print the receipt" Since when do you have to take down the identity of the client to print a receipt for underwear? Horrendous experience. Will stick to shopping online

However I was so impressed with the online experience I had to write a review anyways. So first I was very excited that the dress I was interested in was available in plus sizes - i used the sizing chart and because I was inbetween I sized up deciding if I needed to I would get it altered. if I didn't like it I could send it back because they have a solid return policy. I ordered the dress on a Thursday morning, paid for standard shipping and assumed it would arrive sometime next week since I live in Alberta. Imagine my shock when it arrived the NEXT DAY. Opened it up and everything was beautifully wrapped in ribbon with a beautiful note to boot. The dress is gorgeous - it will definitely need some hemming but I could not be more thrilled. I 100% will be buying from here again.

I asked if I could get a new one as she rolled her eyes and walked away to get a brand new one. again the prices are good, just don't have high expectation for customer service.

Somehow I had lost my winter hat at a cathedral in Montreal so we were walking around looking for a…read moregood hat that wasn't necessarily marked up because it had some brand name or designer logo on it. We saw several overpriced hats at other stores and then ventured into Uniqlo. We don't have one near but but the feel of it was right for what I wanted. We found a reasonably priced hat with their supposed HeatTech technology, and it was very reasonably priced. It served me fine the rest of our time in Canada. I was surprised it's actually a Japanese brand.

OMG this is a bloody amazing store!…read more My mom used to visit her sister in Boston, primarily to go to the Uniqlo store there, and then she'd visit me in Seattle, and then Vancouver when I moved there, and the first thing on her list was always to go to the Uniqlo stores in that city. It's always been a go-to store for her and my dad, as it always has had the BEST basic wardrobe staples - and then some! - in sizing that FITS, and of excellent quality. It was just such a big bummer that my folks had to travel far and wide to get to any of their stores. And they had nightmare experiences, trying to order stuff from their website. It was important for them to actually try on the clothing. So it was great anticipation that we all waited for this store to open up in Montreal! I sent my mom status updates, on the store opening, for months before it opened, and she is just in heaven now that the store is in her city! I visited the store yesterday and even though I had read about it being the flagship Canadian store and all its features, I was still blown away by it. It is gorgeous! Huge, well laid-out, excellent signage, clean, open, spanning two levels. With all the excellent clothing for men, women and kids that they are known for. They have always had excellent sales, and right now, they are selling their winter jackets for a steal (and they are known for their winter jackets, along with base layers/thermal "Heat" layers). In fact, a lot of their winter gear is on sale right now, and they have an enormous selection of everything. So if you're in the market for cold weather clothing, you need to get there ASAP. All Uniqlo offer free hemming of their pants if they are too long on you (I've used this free feature a few times in their Seattle store. It was great!). I've gotten lots of clothes here and they've all withstood years of hard wear, so I'm a big fan. And now with this new, jazzy store, Montreal, you got it made!
