Prada/versace/gucci clothing

[eclipseqt]

Anybody know where to buy Prada and such clothing? They don't carry anything at Chinook Centre or South Centre. I've been down to 17th Ave and they don't have anything either! It's all Diesel, Diesel, Diesel!

[toyboy88]

actually on 17th they have a men's high-end clothing store that sells prada and versace. it's right beside the brass monaco (glasses shop) in between 7th and 8th ave.

forget the name though

:thumbsup:

^ that would be UZU i think

you can try Holt Renfrew in TD Square downtown

[eclipseqt]

I'm a girl though. Do they only have mens?

[saiyajin]

then you should try TD downtown

[BebeAphrodite]

Are you looking for women or for men?
Womens would be over at Holt.
For men, Holt, Henry Singer in bankers, and also Harry Rosen in TD too. Also Henry on 4th has more casual designer clothes.
come to think of it, I havent seen Versace for a while.
Also, if ur into the Prada line, Boss a line that resembles of a lot of the prada clothes but a lot cheaper (300/shirt for Boss vs. 500/shirt for Prada - this was for a similar shirt I found in the two designers)... ha ha ha, total generalisation but that's why I love Boss for boys. It's so affordable and looks sooo nice)

$300/shirt is affordable? not that I should talk I have a few but I wouldn't call it affordable.

Henry on 4th:thumbsup: , casual line suited for the young gentlemen. Super Expensive, wish I could shop there.

[eclipseqt]

I think I will check out TD this afternoon with some friends, is there any parking down there though? I would hate to take the c-train! :(

[badseed]

Yes, try the parkade.

christ katie... :banghead: :dunno: :rolleyes: :nut:

can we say spoiled? lol hee hee :angel: j/k

for some 300 for a shirt is nothing, but for others, they could easily by like 3 shirts at bananna republic or something... oh well... to each their own... i'm a starving student, so value village for life :rofl:

ha ha ha
I was saying it was affordable compared to Prada. A complete generalisation.
Soo many similar styles. When I didn't know that Hugo had released their new lines I was looking at the clothes and I thought it was Prada sport because it even has that little tag. Similar lines, even styles, materials, but when I walked closer I saw it was Boss and wayy cheaper! :D
So for a fraction of the cost of Prada, Boss is similar.

As for the brand name clothes for girls, you can go to Holt - that's about it. A lot of the fashions are targetted for older people so it's sorta hard to find clothes in every area.


T-im: ha ha ha, wow, you know ur stuff... ha ha ha

[Redlyne_mr2]

Boss is definitely affordable compared to others and very well made, they make some wicked gear. Gucci and prada, are shitty quality, over priced and are generally for homosexuals.

Recently I've been running into a few GQ wannabes at the Poker table. Telling me about their $300 shoes, $300 shirts, jean, glasses etc.etc. And then I ask what car they drive, 1990 Accord. LOL:rofl:

[RSeXy]

^^

WERD. I get his clothes and man do I find deals on them! hahaha!

No way I can spend $300 on a shirt. There would have to be diamonds encrusted on it or something! I'm learning to be thrifty on clothes so I can splurge on accessories! hehe...my shirts are $12, my jeans/pants $80-120.

haha yeah

but anyways, boss stuff is nice, but boss stuff is lacking in quality..their suits are okay, cut nice, but nothing that great..sales people will tell you people mainly pay the 1g just because it's hugo boss

in my opinion, for 1g, i would save up a more for Canali or Zenga

Prada sport is pretty nice but everything looks the same season after season...black and grey in that nylony material with a red tag coming from one side

and prada looks grandma-esque around here

I notice this too, its people living one step ahead of their pocket books. No savings, no inventments, no assets, just their one shirt worth $1000.

Do you have the exact address?

[Ajay]

Beleive it or not the best bargains for high end clothes like that is Ebay.

You can buy a bunch of shirts, pants, accessories by higher end manufactures from Ebay for a fraction of what it would cost to buy at any stores in Calgary that carry them.

I personally don't like alot of the stuff by Gucci or Versace cause I think alot of it is to chachy but if you want it Ebay is where it's at. I have a couple bids on some Cavalli, Ben Sherman, and D&G articles going right now!

[Stratus_Power]

whats a good way to tell whether an item on ebay is a real or a fake?

[Ajay]

Well I wouldn't buy from a private person if I was buying a more expensive piece of clothing like Gucci or Prada...stick to the wholesellers.

Also most reputable sellers on Ebay will have pics showing the tags of the article of clothing with the brand name. Plus if in their description it says "Versace" and you get the item and the tag on the back of the shirt says "Versac" or something you can file a complaint with Ebay and get your $$ back. Just stick to the reputable sellers and you'll be fine....I haven't had any issues yet and I've bought a decent amount of clothes from there.

[DUBBED]

The only thing I'd be worried about on ebay is sizing, I'm so awkward bodied that it's hard to get stuff to fit even when I try it on first. Some people have the luxery of being a true medium though. ahahha
