When your namesake is the unicorn of the sea, you can bet you're in for something kind of wonderful. The Narwhal is a little piece of fashion heaven nestled between restaurants and design stores in Toronto's Rosedale neighborhood. Opened by friends Sydney Wills and Marisa Buchkowsky in 2010, they keep their racks stocked with an impressive designer edit including Ulla Johnson, Acne Studios, A.L.C., Rag & Bone, Rachel Comey, Raquel Allegra, Mociun and more.

Known for artful custom textiles, modern silhouettes and sought-after footwear, Rachel Comey began her career in fashion designing for men. Once she moved into the accessories game for women, and then clothing, she found her groove and quickly became a household name in the creative class of American fashion. She has garnered a cult following for her collections designed for the modern, intelligent women and the infamous Mars boot.
