Forever Fashions

It's about time! The arrival of Forever 21 (XXI) or Tournée 21 to Montréal may come as a shock to those living States side or in other parts of Canada, but as a person who has a closet space devoted to this store, its arrival is long over due.

Located in the downtown core, it is surrounded by shops that may be on the mark but not at the same price point. Even with the converted inflated prices, it is still a deal. Current, ripped-from-the-runway, fast fashions with decent pricing -- we approve!

Location: Complexe Les Ailes 677 St. Catherine W. (corner University St.)
Size: 18,000- to 19,000-square-foot on two floors
Pricing: $4 - $60 (taxes not included)
Read more and see pics of the opening day + lineup at Mode Trotter.


PS: Another XXI is soon to come. (St. Catherine Ouest and de la Montagne: Old GAP Store)

Ask yourself, Are you sure this world is for you? And are you sure you are the right person to survive in this world — the world of fashion, a world with no rules, no laws? KARL LAGERFELD

This is a quote from the Teen Vogue's Handbook: An Insider's Guide to Careers in Fashion. Slated for release in October, this reference guide offers aspiring career fashionistas advice from industry experts such as: Marc Jacobs, Karl Lagerfeld and Anna Wintour. Check out the video.

Do your homework, go online, visit every museum, and intern. You just need to have a love for what you’re doing. It’s not about thinking that it’s the cool thing; it’s about really believing in it.
