Unicorn Boutique by Mike Giles
After working in the fashion industry for over a decade, Mélanie Robillard and Amelie Thellen, joined forces to realize their childhood dream of opening a boutique. Unicorn is a cute shop for smart-looking women (and soon men) in Montreal's Plateau/Mile End district.
Carrying a hand-picked selection of international, national and local designer brands such as Swedish Hasbeens, Dunderdon, Orbit, Uranium, Tilly Doro, Eugenia Designs, Madame JO and Rittenhouse, the shop also stocks beautiful vintage treasures and the very best accessories from talents local and abroad. The creature may be mythological but the store is a beautiful reality.

Foregoing expensive or elaborate interior details, Brian and...

Comme des Garçons for H&M
by Ariston AndersonWe haven't been so excited about a diffusion line since Proenza Schouler came to Target.

The...

Fallow Boutique
The perfect balance between Shiraz and Parmesan is the metaphor that came to mind when we met Nat Denning, a fashion retailer, and Michael, a retail shopfitter, who have combined to create Fallow, one of Australia's most stylish and unique boutiques. Stocking the best of Australian and international labels including Friedrich Gray, Claude Maus, St Augustine Academy and Chronicles of Never, this boutique is...

A.P.C. Surplus, Brooklyn
We were among the excited first today to check out A.P.C.'s latest store (and the second of their outlets worldwide) today in Brooklyn. Called A.P.C. Surplus for its flat 60% discounted prices, the Williamsburg storefront is housed in a beautiful former bank with plenty of rustic charm (i.e. it looks as if it recently caught fire). At only 600 square feet, the space feels...
