upc Boutique

I have honestly been looking for this boutique for so long. upc Boutique. I heard about it on a blog quite a while ago. It was either on The Legends League or Lost In The Willderness.

Either way, I never come to downtown prepared with a map and a list of places I must visit, so I always miss out on some places. Unfortunately upc was one of them, because I think this might seriously be my new favourite Yorkville store.

It's not a large store by any means, and it certainly doesn't carry a large quantity of clothes. Probably no more than 3 or 4 racks of men's clothes. A double portion of womenswear. All this being said, it probably has my favourite stocklist in all of Toronto.

It just has all the really creative and fascinatingly interesting avante-garde stuff available. Not necessarily the gothic drapey labels, but the ones that like to really play around with proportions with drop crotch bottoms, lengthier tops, a lot of asymmetry, and such.

It has your Canadian staple, Philip Sparks, but then it goes onto offer cult favourites like Rad Hourani, Alexandre Herchovitch, Beta Unit, Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair, Chronicles of Never, complexgeometries, and a lot more. Opening Ceremony too!

So definitely stop by upc. They always seem to have stuff on sale, and the people working there are very nice as well.
