So, when I found myself in the market for some new clothes during this pandemic, I hit the web and scoured Movement Global's website for inspiration. Unsure about sizes and colours I called the store and found the owner, Amrita, incredibly patient and helpful. She even remembered what I purchased before and made some really helpful recommendations. The clothes arrived in only a few days and voila! I highly recommend Movement for those who not only want to wear very comfortable and wonderfully made clothing but also care about sustainable fabrics and locally sourced goods. On a practical note, I wear a size up in most of these clothes as they fit small. Again, Amrita helped me find the right size in each...

DO NOT GO LOOKING FOR A POSITIVE EXPERIENCE AT "MOVEMENT". YOU'LL LIKELY BE DISAPPOINTED…read more Two weekends ago I went to visit my sister who lives on Bowen Island. Our Mum and Dad were with us, as well as my sister's mother-in-law and her sisters-in-law. We were looking forward to browsing in this shop because my sister has a clothing piece from there and it's something I'd enjoy seeing more of. Upon approach to the shop's front door I was suddenly right in front of the store's owner who asked my name, and was I x person or y person? I was told that it was important I understand that this shop was "... An intentional store...", to which I inquired what that meant. The response I was given was a diatribe of how she had no staff because of COVID (I was told many things at this time, I may not get them all correct), etc... Basically indicating that before I could enter the store I was expected to use the QR code to browse her website, then choose a style, size and color, and if she had it in stock I'd be permitted into the shop to try it on. Another member of our party flat out asked if "intentional store" simply meant that we could only come in if we were planning on making a purchase, and the owner then got her fur up and started blabbering about something incoherently. To make a long story short, my sister eventually expressed to the owner that she felt this was a rude way of treating potential customers. The entire party was in agreement at this point, and we decided to leave. The owner was very upset and began yelling at my sister, telling her that she could have been out with her friends at a baby shower, that she'd given up her entire Saturday for this "appointment". None of us understood how she didn't want to be at her shop in a very touristy location in mid-August on a Saturday, but whatever, she escalated her behaviour and was asking if anyone had ever run any businesses, to which a number of us replied that yes we had, and she just started slinging insults. Our father was with us and she was following behind him, continuing with the rude commentary. My Dad finally turned around and told her to "shut up", to which she responded with a rude expletive I refuse to write here. Basically, nobody understood how this person could ever get any business with her attitude and ability to send potential customers running in the opposite direction. It was extremely negative, the whole thing really upset not only myself, but several other of the adults in our group. I can only say that in my experience, it's been very useful to ensure that customers (serious or not) feel welcome and comfortable to come in and explore, but this piece of sales practice must be totally foreign to the owner of "Movement". Needless to say I highly recommend avoiding an experience like this by not visiting this store. If you do, I really hope you have a different experience than our lot did.

We had just driven in from a few days in Tofino, and I realized I hadn't really packed anything too appropriate for a conference with my coworkers and colleagues. Oops. Emergency dress shopping time! Sometimes, I am afraid to step foot into adorable boutiques, because I am borderline plus-size and often feel like I'm being judged a la Pretty Woman in this type of shop. This was a refreshing experience! The owner helped me pick out lots of adorable things to try on, most of them fit, and I ended up with two fabulous dresses that are now wardrobe regulars, as well as the most comfortable pair of bamboo leggings I could have ever imagined. I strongly considered going back after the conference to buy them in different colors and lengths. I had to hold myself back from all the gorgeous accessories and jewelery on offer, but it did make me a little sad. This boutique would be right at home in Victoria - the fact that I found it up in unassuming little Parksville with an amazing owner with a flair for stocking fabulous things just puts it right over the top for me.
