White Elephant is a charmingly curated independent boutique with equally charming owners. Friends Hollie Pocsai and Jane Labatte opened up shop in 2008 with a mission to showcase independent makers from Canada. They focus on local and sustainable design for a store brimming with classic, contemporary and thoughtful wares. You’ll find designers like Valerie Dumaine, Eve Gravel, Birds of North America, Betina Lou and more.

Montreal-based womenswear brand Odeyalo creates from a desire for comfort, a need for slow fashion, and a love of minimalism. In an effort to curb overconsumption, all pieces are designed to coordinate for an effortless capsule wardrobe. Lines range from classic closet staples to outerwear and accessories, all made locally with either deadstock or repurposed fabric for high-quality, timeless clothing.
