Quorum, absolutely no problem. Took there time to walk us through the process, select the fabrics (yes you get to choose your lining and what you would like monogrammed in it) and come back for the first fitting when it came back from Italy. Absolutely gorgeous. Worth every cent.

The quality of their clothing is excellent, shipped from Italy. They learn what their customers like and what suits them and help you put an outfit together. Their newsletter is fabulous, Carlos puts it together with Michael so you're kept up to date with what they have in stock. They will also modify anything you buy to fit as they have really good in house tailors. This is a family run business that gives outstanding service and should be regularly supported in every way. You simply do not get this type of service anywhere else anymore!

Fashion; reasonably-priced…read more A satisfying selection of unique and modern pieces for both men and women. Awesome shoes and booties, hats, socks, bags, sunglasses (Karen Walkers!) and especially jewellery. They also carry some nice little gifts/home items, such as candles, The Laundress products, and perfumes. The ladies behind the counter are always lovely and they run great sales and promotions (of special interest was their "12 Days of Christmas" in which they ran a different promotion on each of the 12 days leading up to Christmas - very cool). Great little boutique for the unique and fashion-forward.

Not that I need yet another reason to love Strathcona, but this clothing store is just the best…read more I went here recently to get some new wardrobe pieces for 2012, and I was not disappointed. In my opinion, all of the clothing at Charlie & Lee is beautiful -- stylish and casual without being overly hipstery. There seems to be an emphasis on unique and flattering cuts that have a timeless edge -- like the ruched skirt, black blazer and die-cut oxfords I came away with the last time I went here. One of the things that often frustrates me with clothing shopping is the lack of really good service. I've experienced pushy salespeople who follow me around, and snobby salespeople who completely ignore me, but rarely do I encounter intellioent salespeople like the ones at Charlie and Lee. The girls who work here actually ask me what I'm looking for, choose pieces for me to try on, and then give their HONEST opinion when I step out of the changeroom. What a relief!

I've no idea what took me so long to enter this store, as I was always intrigued by the vivid and…read moreinteresting store displays, but I am happy I finally did! From what I know of the fabulous Miss. Sixty jeans and their hefty price tag, I wasn't too surprised to see that most items in Miss.Sixty are pricey. That being said, most of the items are totally worthy of the price tag! I had forgotten how original in design and incredibly interesting Miss.Sixty apparel was, being that the last time I had been in an actual Miss.Sixty store was in the UK many moons ago. The clothing here is meant for the man or woman who wants to stand out and make a statement, both with their clothing and their personality. These intricate designs, shiny fabrics, bold accessories and, of course, fab jeans, are not for the weak of heart and I love it! It is very reminiscent of the verve and vitality of European apparel and attitude. Another reason to adore this shop? The staff! Not one, not two, not three, but four separate staff members made a considerable effort (without being irritating) to assist me in finding what I wanted or just offering up suggestions. Sales people are not hard to come by, but great sales people are and Miss.Sixty on Robson has snatched up a good few of them. I suspect if I worked here, amongst these exciting clothes, that I too would be enjoying my work and wanting to spread the word to the customers!

This Energie store is among the best. The store is quite small compared to the ones Ive visited in…read moreCalgary and Montreal, but the service here was superior. The style of clothing at Energie are not outrageous or bizzare in my mind, they are very clean and modern European clothing As some of the reviewers posted before, the prices are high. But Energie is a brand that competes with Diesel in quality and market, so if the high prices are a discouraging, visit another store instead.

Having visited the store on Granville just the other day we had just happened to come across this…read morelocation as well on Georgia and Hornby. The store is neatly laid out and much smaller than the location on Granville but the displays are well organized and the merchandise can easily be seen. I had walked in after my wife and I was standing around actually adding the business listing in the store while she was speaking to the staff. I already knew there wasn't a listing because the other store didn't have one either. Again my wife seemed to be interested in the leggings. The cashmere she sampled again getting a good chance to feel it she said it was good quality. Again, I'll defer to her knowledge on the subject as she knows clothes very well. The customer service and attention is very helpful and not at all at either store at any time did we feel neglected or ignored. I was also asked if I had been helped and I had said I was with my wife who was already speaking with an employee. The staff at both locations seemed helpful, patient, attentive and very knowledgeable about their products. The prices for the quality of their products is very reasonable. Cashmere is an expensive product but this is not cheap quality products being sold here.

My friend gets the credit for introducing me to this chain of stores; but, the rest of the credit goes to Marilyn and her amazing clothes. I have shopped at Diane Kennedy before (the only other local plus-size designer in Vancouver) and Blue Sky puts them to shame for price, make, quality and shopping experience. I will be a devoted customer for as long as I'm able to. I just wish I had more money to spend there!

Over the past year, having now shopped at 3 Blue Sky locations (North Van, Kits & Commercial…read moreDrive), this is one of my favourite clothing shops because a) the clothing is well made from super comfortable fabrics in a wide variety of styles, patterns and sizes, b) the pricing reflects good value c) the staff are equally incredible at all locations; helpful, caring, knowledgeable, absolutely no pressure sales. I've never experienced such consistency across multiple locations of a brand. It's refreshing. Have fun checking them out!

This little shoppe makes me happy, because every time I wear my little dress, I get compliments…read more And when I'm cold I bundle up in my shawl. Compliments galore. What can I say, I like being stylish :) and supporting local artists. Adhesif has a very distinctive style that I appreciate both on an aesthetic and on a good-for-the-environment level, as all of the pieces are made out of other items of clothing. You might also find some cute buttons/broaches and hair pieces here. The prices are for handmade, so they may be higher than you're going to find elsewhere, but you can also wait for "Nifty for Fifty" which is a sale that the owner hosts every spring. It features lots of independent designers, including Adhesif, and everything is under $50. The only downside to this store is that it's very specific. Luckily, Forysa is next door so you can get in more shopping and browsing than if you were to make a trip specifically for Adhesif.

Then I found Adhesif Clothing and Melissa and my wardrobe and views of fashion and fear of colour have completely changed - and only for the best. Melissa - the owner - has an amazing eye for style and brings unique and colourful pieces of fabrics together - mostly from salvaged, vintage clothing that she has creatively reworked into awesome, colourful and one of a kind pieces. Her enthusiasm and willingness to share her knowledge of fashion and style and her brilliant pieces have transformed my once boring wardrobe into one that is exciting and vibrant. Even my husband comments on my new-found style and each morning my mother must see what 'Adhesif' piece I may be wearing. She says I have such beautiful clothes and I agree. I am thrilled with every 'Adhesif' piece I own! I find that I rarely leave the house without at least one 'Adhesif' item. Each of the pieces I have collected builds on the other and the colour palette and style allows me to mix and match items to help create a selection for all occasions. See, I've learned so much. I'm just an ordinary person who has extraordinary taste thanks to Melissa. Except for the basics - it's a one-stop-shop for me. I am constantly getting stopped and complimented on my outfits - thriii-llinggg. :) Melissa, thanks for the education and my amazing wardrobe.
