British fashion brand AllSaints opened its fourth Canadian location this week in Montreal. The 2,500 square foot store is located at 2138 rue de la Montagne, south of Holt Renfrew and the Ritz Carlton Hotel, and a block north of Ogilvy.
Retail Insider Montreal correspondent Maxime Frechette took photos of the new store, which features exposed brick/stone walls and concrete flooring, contrasting with metal and glass fixtures. Men’s and women’s AllSaints fashions are showcased, as well as a selection of footwear and accessories. The store was designed in-house.
AllSaints is in the process of opening stores across Canada. The company opened its third Canadian store on February 24 of this year at CF Toronto Eaton Centre, measuring about 1,500 square feet. AllSaints’ first Canadian location opened in April of 2013 at Toronto’s Yorkdale Shopping Centre, measuring 6,600 square feet in the mall’s southwest wing which opened in the fall of 2012. A second Canadian store, measuring 2,237 square feet, opened in June of 2015 at Vancouver’s CF Pacific Centre.

I love that now you have a correspondent in Montreal, it’s really nice !
We’re extremely grateful and fortunate to have met Maxime. He has been a tremendous source of information, as well as providing excellent photos. His ability to create maps with graphics is actually better than what we’re able to do, as evidenced in a recent article about H&M expanding its downtown Montreal flagship.
I hope you keep them ! Great work !!
