SSENSE, Canada’s largest luxury e-commerce website opened up a flagship boutique little over a year ago on St. Paul street in historic Old Montreal.

With all the specialty high end stores, cool hotels, art galleries and famed restaurants, this area is gearing up to be the destination for international jetsetters and local fashionistas.

SSENSE fits right in and brings a certain flair to the neighbourhood. The two storey boutique features cutting edge designer clothing and accessories for men and women and is one of the rare places in Montreal where you can get your hands on high end runway pieces from the likes of Lanvin, Givenchy or Balmain.

Although the store carries mostly luxury labels (unlike the website which features more accessible brands like 3.1 Phillip Lim and Opening Ceremony) the helpful salespeople will be happy to get any item from the website sent over to the Old Montreal boutique for you to try on.

With hard to find brands like R13 and Margiela, SSENSE is one of the top places in Montreal to get your high fashion fix.
