She bought some slim fitting jeans, two blouses and a dress and plans to return for more when time (and her budget) allows. I was really happy with how well the staff treated her. They gave us VIP treatment and really made her feel special. Thanks again, you guys are terrific.

I just bought a gorgeous top coat for $125 there that I know the Bay had on sale for $500! That is hard to beat but they continue to offer those deals. Alex and Sam are knowledgeable of their stock but also fun guys and it is an old-fashioned shopping experience as it is entertainment combined with great deals. Quality merchandise (check the labels) and every now and then, some major designer goods. It is a hidden gem of a store for men.

They carry a really nice collection of 7 For All Mankind jeans here, these are the most comfortable jeans I've ever owned. Match this with their great selection of shirts from John Varvatos, and you have yourself a great outfit you can walk out in. Customer service is good, though there is only one person working at a given time, so expect to wait if they are already helping someone. So, in conclusion, if you're in Baiview and looking for some high quality menswear, look no further than San Marino.

Excellent service and quality of product. My wife used to be a fashion designer (with a university…read moredegree in fashion design and production) specialising in menswear before she decided to become a stay at home mom so she knows quality when she sees it. Obviously i took her with me to try on the product and give her opinion. Pricing is not cheap but in this case you get what you pay for. Much of the quality you're paying for is the fabric and quality of construction as well as the stuff you don't see (e.g.. the insides etc.) These were things my wife pointed out that i wouldn't have even known about. In the end, according to her, its how yhe suit hangs off the body and the longevity. I just liked the fabrics available. Overall, i was/am quite happy even though i ended up paying mire than i ever thought i would for a couple of suits :).

Nevertheless, you can find gorgeous Smythe coats and jackets here (also found at Holt Renfrew) which are made in Canada, as well as other beautiful pieces in simple cuts and pretty colours. I find them a slight bit pushy and overeager to sell... although they backed off once they realized I was not responding to their cooing about how perfect the items looked on me. You can also find some wonderful cashmere in here, but I prefer buying cashmere scarves from White & Warren online (best quality cashmere for the price, I have ever found, even compared to the uber expensive Cashmere Shop in super pricey Yorkville), and I prefer buying my cashmere sweaters secondhand ... because they're expensive.

I was wandering down Yonge St, and the cute clothes in the window caught my eye…read more HOWEVER, the atmosphere inside definitely does not match the beautiful displays. The products were nice enough, but overpriced in my opinion.  But the main problem was the service! After not even being greeted or assisted in any way for several minutes (and it's not a large shop - they could see me, but chose to ignore me and to keep conversing between them).  When I finally asked a question about sizing in a top, I was very brusquely brushed off. This happened again, until one of the employees suggested a different top (that was about 3x the price).  When I made a comment about it being out of my price range, she looked me up and down and condescendingly told me that maybe the items were not my style. (Yes, I was wearing yoga pants and a sweater - I don't dress up for walking around).  I told her that I found her comment extremely rude, and walked out. I can accept a higher price for something if the service is great.  But people that rude do not deserve anyone's business.

I ordered the powernet shorts with wide straps. Their sizing chart online for this item is…read morecompletely wrong. It should take into account not just the waist, but the hips and the rib cage area. I would normally wear an XL. According to their chart I needed a 2XL. It arrived and sizing was not even close. I called them to arrange to return and exchange. I figured I should order a 4XL. The woman recommended getting a 3XL because it needs to be snug. So $56 later in shipping charges, i received the new one. Guess what? I should have gone with my instincts and got the 4XL. I'm not spending another $56 in shipping to exchange it again. I suggest the company revamp their sizing chart. I now have an item that I've paid close to $200 that I can't wear. Disappointed.

I red reviews and watched videos online prior to going. I was served my a younger columbian lady who yes may seem a bit "tough" but had a great knowledge of the store and whats looks good, iv learned through experience not to order these kind of things online. My girlfriend suggested to get the orthopedic with straps to avoid back fat and to purchase the one where you wear your own bar. It has only been a few days but I LOVE my corset. YES the bones can be discomforting when you sit but I found the more I wear it the less it hurts NO it does not smell like layetx, I LOVE the shape it give me, the back support it provides and iv lost 4 pounds in a few days from not eating as much.I do suggest a tube top under the corset around your waist if you find it pulls your skin. I also use a firming gel after use. To be honest anyone whining about having to sacrafice a bit to gain a great looking body will just keep failing with their bad additudes. No pain no gain people!! Its a corset not a yoga top!

Buyers Beware: Lafayette Consignment appears to be a total sham…read more Tried to contact the store several times via phone, email, and instagram DM to inquire about an Hermes Birkin bag advertised on their website. After nil response, I decided to order the bag anyways. Completed the online checkout process and received an order confirmation from Lafayette directly. It is worth noting that after I purchased the bag, there was a "sold out" note on the advertisement. 16 hours later, Lafayette cancelled my order without explanation. I quickly attempted to contact them directly (again), without success. Clearly Lafayette did not have this bag in their stock. They have still not released the hold on my credit card and will not pick up their phone or answer any emails. This has been one of the most frustrating customer experiences and I would never consider shopping with them again.

The bag was in immaculate condition, and I am delighted with my purchase.

One thing, I wish this location would do is make some of their sections larger. But I'm biased, I admit. I My main focus for shopping here is the cheaper prices for natural skincare & bags. LOL. I don't shop for clothing or shoes at Winner's as I don't have the patience to go through the racks most of the time. I will say though, that the line up goes quickly at this location as it usually isn't crazy busy. The people at the cashier are always nice too.
