Minimalists rejoice! Japanese fast fashion chain Uniqlo, best known for its stylish basics at favourable prices, has announced that it will open two locations in Toronto in the fall of 2016. This is the brand’s first foray into the Canadian market and its 18th market worldwide.
The two flagship stores will be located in Toronto’s Yorkdale Shopping Centre, one of North America’s top-earning malls, and the historic Eaton Centre mall, a landmark shopping destination. They will measure 24,000 and 28,000 square feet respectively and will carry the full men’s, women’s and children’s Uniqlo ranges.
Some of the brand’s proprietary performance collections include AIRism, HEATTECH and Ultra Light Down as well as premium denim, fleece and cotton separates. A leader in creating high-performance apparel, past designer collaborations have included collections produced in conjunction with Jil Sander, Orla Kiely and Helmut Lang.
