Little Black Dress Shop

  • 135 Tecumseth St. (at Queen St. W.) , Suite:7 • View on map »
  • 416-901-5470
Inspired by a visit to London’s White Shirt Shop, owner Jay Barrigar conceived a simple, genius premise: 700 square feet of little black frockery. The shop’s take on the LBD genre largely consists of cocktail-length numbers ($110–$350) in sizes two to 16; stocked labels are a roll call of homegrown and international designers, including Iris, Penny Black, David Dixon, and streetwise Vancouver label Narcissist. Barrigar raves about a newly acquired label, Toronto’s Miranda Lumley, whose Audrey Hepburn–style dresses ($265–$485) are exclusive to the boutique.
