Montreal is a shopping destination like no other. You can easily find big brands in various shopping malls across the city, but we tend to prefer beautiful independent little boutiques that offer carefully crafted products. These are the ones we like to visit when it’s time to replenish our wardrobes or decorate our homes. Discover these addresses that are among our favourites in town.
Édition
361, Saint Paul Ouest street
Carefully chosen items, rare items, collectible items. The Édition boutique is a destination of choice for those looking for unique products such as jewelry, kitchen accessories, furniture, decorative objects and much more. Did you know that Christiane Germain curated a selection of items herself? A collaboration with the boutique that made so much sense, as she is a lover of beautiful things.
Clarah Germain, director of rooms division at Alt Hotel St. John’s, is also a fan of the boutique and the objects that you will find there.
Maguire
5365, St-Laurent boulevard
Marie Pier Germain has a shoe collection of which dreams are made of. She is a fan of colourful, original and eccentric creations that make an outfit really stand out.
Maguire is the ultimate destination in Montreal to find a pair of high-end, ethically produced shoes with original designs. Indeed, Maguire’s shoes are made in human-scale factories all over the world. We like that the models are classic and versatile with a touch of tasteful originality. Fall in love at first sight with their products as well as their splendid concept store located on St-Laurent boulevard.

Prepare yourself to be amazed, inspired and excited when entering the Baltic Club boutique. It's oh so beautiful!

Miljours Studio
426, Beaubien Est Street
We love the genuine leather goods, clothing and decorative items handmade in Montreal (or in Florence, Italy!) from Miljours Studio. All of the store's products are eco-responsible and sustainable, which means that they are created on a human scale with high quality materials. Discover their own collection as well as several carefully chosen brands from here and elsewhere.
