The best fashion and gift stores Quebec

Inaugurated with a large pump at the end of August 2012, the huge store of the label finally moved to the Belle Province. You will be filled by the area of the places that occupy 1 022 m ², nothing less. Underwear, swimwear, sports clothing and beauty products are well grouped by section. From the glam to the big comfort, from the sweet black sweet, Victoria's Secret is THE destination to find the one or the pieces that will really highlight.

Located just minutes away from all strategic points, this huge shopping gallery is one of Quebec's leading shopping and entertainment destinations, and is one of the largest commercial complexes in the whole of Canada. It also includes the Mega Parc Ephemeral and its many attractions, including several new ones, as well as the largest IMAX screen in the country.

Montreal has its own Apple shop in the heart of the city centre, where brand lovers can find all possible items. Services on-site: Genius Bar, workshops.

For those who would like to bring back a more special souvenir, take a tour of the Wazo workshop-boutique, which makes magnificent jewellery and decorative objects. Its artist-creator, Martin Boucher Arsenault, makes unique pieces using various metals, stones and other materials. To discover: the unisex fragrance, signed Monsillage - Wazo, developed in collaboration with perfumer Isabelle Michaud. Wazo also offers an online boutique for those who don't have the chance to go directly to the store.

Located on the country's largest commercial artery, the Eaton Centre is clearly the busiest shopping centre in town. A shopping destination par excellence, it features more than 150 shops, services and restaurants spread over five floors, not to mention the Musée Grévin Montréal, the first link in the international network of the Musée de Cire de Paris. The Eaton Centre is at the heart of Montreal's famous underground network that connects it to other shopping centres, Place Montréal Trust and Promenades Cathédrale, among others.

One of the absolute references when it comes to preparing a nature trip. Clothing, shoes, accessories, backpacks, tents and sleeping bags; good selection of bikes, skis and snowshoes, and some kayaks; complete climbing equipment, and more. An address that doesn't skimp on quality, and that therefore charges quite high prices, except for the house brand. Outdoor equipment rental service (Saint-Laurent Boulevard branch only), ski and bike shop.

A pretty boutique that will appeal to women looking for quality, original and colorful clothing, bags or jewelry, but above all, made in Canada. A veritable gateway to local fashion, nearly a hundred renowned and emerging designers share the showcase: Allison Wonderland, Anne-Marie Chagnon, Atelier B, Cokluch, Eve Gravel, Jennifer Glasgow, Matt & Nat, Noujica, Schwiing and more. Since 2020, the boutique has also welcomed guest brands in its pop-up spaces, providing an opportunity to discover ever more home-grown talent.

Recognized as one of the leaders in Canadian fashion, Marie Saint Pierre seduces with her creativity and taste, giving her brand a beautiful and strong artistic identity. Her boutique perfectly characterizes the Montreal designer's avant-garde and innovative state of mind. From a simple tunic to an evening gown, each piece has been elaborated at length to give a unique style to the woman who will wear it. The accessories collection is also worth a visit. Another Montreal boutique is located in the Rockland Centre.

Opened in 1989, the first boutique on Saint-Laurent Boulevard recently closed, but the brand is still present in the Eaton Centre and online. The brand is also present elsewhere in Canada and as far afield as Japan. Here you'll find outerwear, jackets, bags and accessories of all kinds, cut from top-quality leather with trendy cuts. The pieces are more than just clothing or accessories: they're almost works of art. The pleasant setting makes this boutique all the more enjoyable.

Looking for a dress, tiki decorations or a kitsch gift idea? The name says it all: Kitsch'n Swell is the place to be. From taxidermy to fifties sunglasses, women's clothing and accessories (also in the plus-size section), this boutique is a treasure trove for vintage enthusiasts inspired by creations from the 1930s-1950s. Original, high-quality items are the order of the day in this den of the modern rockabilly pin-up.

Established for more than 20 years in the neighborhood, Atom Heart is a store that not only has the merit of being very pretty, but is also one of the few in Montreal to offer such a wide range of rock, alternative and electronic music produced under independent labels. If you don't find what you're looking for, we'll be more than happy to find it for you. To get an idea of the inventory, check out the online store or follow the Facebook page to keep up with new arrivals, which are constant.

Almost a shoe museum, Tony Pappas has been in business for over a hundred years! Comfortable, quality shoes for men and women (large sizes available), as well as for children, all in a rather classic style. The store also offers a wide range of accessories such as wallets, umbrellas, handbags... A shoe-shine salon is available on site, and the shoemaking service remains one of the best in town. A benchmark in quality and customer service.

This independent bookstore specializing in cuisine and gastronomy could not have found a better place to make its nest. In the heart of the Jean-Talon Market, it is the only French-language bookstore of its kind in North America. Alcohols and cocktails, vegan cuisine, healthy cooking, cooking techniques or cooking with children... the shelves are well stocked. You'll also find a wide range of books specialized in haute gastronomy, books by local and international chefs as well as gourmet novels. THE reference in the field in Montreal!

A reference of the book and the second hand record. There is a myriad of titles, classified by subject, in good condition, for a fraction of the original price, of course. Music lovers will not be outdone by the choice of music from all horizons on CDs and vinyls. According to the arrivals, the discoveries can be of size. All the records are guaranteed by the company, so you're safe from unpleasant surprises! DVDs and Blu-Ray are also available in store, as well as zines made by local artists.

Christine Guérin and Laurie Lemieux are behind this brand that makes women fall in love.

Installed in the heart of the Village since 2016, the bookstore occupies a pleasant (and very full!) space where everyone will feel good. The premises regularly host literary and feminist events (launches, conferences, round tables, performances, special sales...).

Its name is reminiscent of the title of a Beastie Boys opus. Founded in 2001 and housed in a colorful little house on Mont-Royal Avenue, the store specializes in the sale of new and used vinyl and CDs, including many rarities, in all styles of music (punk, funk, metal, garage, alternative, hip-hop, etc.). You'll also find video games from another era, posters and eclectic items (sunglasses, coffee mugs, etc.). Bonus: arcade machines for a touch of nostalgia!
