Montreal Shopping Guide

Ste-Catherine and Area

1

Bedo

Similar to shops like Zara or French Connection, the Montreal-based Bedo chain consistently provides trendy separates that never border on cheap or club-kid. You can count on finding modified versions of each season's key looks—which currently include military-inspired jackets and drapey white tops—for far below $100.

Browns

Long the spot where locals have headed to find groovy footwear, Browns stocks lines ranging from the instantly recognizable, like Miu Miu and Diesel, to the more esoteric, such as Desmo, Gaen, and Jo Ghost.

Upscale department store Holt Renfrew is a force in Canadian retailing that Lucky can't live without. Look for designers ranging from Marc by Marc Jacobs to Rebecca Taylor, along with a spot-on shoe selection.

Les Ailes De La Mode

This department store—gigantic in both size and scope—offers jeans by Paper Denim & Cloth, clothing by Diesel, and undies by Paul Frank. Les Ailes also supports Canadian designers (keep your eye out for intricately cut clothing by local talent Andy Thê-Anh).

Mona Moore

Perhaps one of the best footwear shops we've seen in North America, Mona Moore is housed in a serene pale pink space and filled with the sharpest shoes from the collections of Miu Miu, Lanvin, MArni, Jil Sander, and Pierre Hardy. Look for Jamin Puech handbags, too, along with sexy undie-and-tank sets by Frost French.

Simons

This youth-oriented department store, a Quebecois institution, is loaded with streetwear, feminine frocks, curve-hugging jeans, lingerie, and more. One of the house labels, Twik, is a blessing: We scored a cute multicolored smocked top for a mere $9.
