Les Étoffes

What you will find here — cherry picked goods that hang like dark gems creating a high-​fashion essence that is the Etoffe universe. I’d love to go in here and put together outfits so me too could be an Etoffe-​girl — dark, mysterious, edgy without trying too hard. But the stuff is SO freaking expensive. Of course it is — it is ultra designer stuff like runway magazine. If I had millions of dollars I could just spend on whatever, it would be a fun trip to come here. But sadly, I am broke. Going in this store is just depressing. Seeing lovelies that will not be mine. So I’m not giving the store 5 stars. It’s like slaps in the face flipping the tag over to see the prices. Unless you have money that you can burn, don’t go in here expecting to buy something. Go in here to window shop and wish you were rich as F.

Great shop that is a little under-​appreciated in Montréal.
Very well-​stocked with an excellent selection of brands, many that you can’t get elsewhere (like Lemaire. well, apart from SSENSE but who shops at SSENSE?). Definitely high /​ultra high-​end, but everything is beautiful and well-​designed.
Worth a visit for men’s and women’s clothing & an intimate vibe with very knowledgable staff.

Brilliant little boutique, carrying only high-​quality clothing. Love that the owner cares about quality, materials… And supports small companies. The set up is amazing, creative, clean and easy to shop. Not sure if it’s the owner or the manager we spoke to a few days ago but he was very knowledgable about the lines and designers they carry. Played great music, too.

A small store with a very grand vision. Like another Unilocaler said, when you walk into Les Étoffes you really sense that you are entering the store’s world. The colors (black, rust, navy, cream), the layout, and the clothes themselves all go together. The feeling is warm and inviting, so you want to go explore all the pieces on display.
I used to sell yarn and fabric, so I loved the different textures and materials on display, from a luxuriously dense knit sweater to an elegant silk blouse. The design of each item was trendy but approachable — I am a jeans and t-​shirt kinda lady but I saw things I would wear.
So why didn’t I come home with a whole new wardrobe? Price, of course, sigh. Les Étoffes is definitely a special-​occasion boutique, and alas I was only sightseeing. While I was there, though, a young man was trying on shirts and mentioned that he was making his first L.E. purchase. It seemed like he’d been looking forward to that day for a while.

Probably Montréal’s most carefully curated clothing boutique. Certainly the most genuinely friendly of its carefully curated clothing boutiques. Contrary to one of the earlier reviews, there’s no vintage clothing here, but you will find a small, but smart selection of men’s and women’s clothes by small and up-​and-​coming designers from Europe and North America.

Really nice $ 1,000 jacket here. Heavy and lined with wool & gold no doubt.

This place was really impressive. A nice selection of hip unique labels and meticulously hand picked vintage pieces. The décor inside was very thoughtful. I always like when shops have a turntable and a stack of old records. Its a good sign. The gentlemen working here, Tyler I believe, was incredibly helpful and super nice.
