Vancouver’s top fashion chains for one-stop shopping

As someone who lives and breathes fashion, I have to be careful how much money I spend. So when I need failsafe stores that won’t completely break the bank, I head over to these places. Plus, most of them are located on Robson Street if you want to do a one-stop shop!

ZARA

1056 Robson St, Vancouver, BC V6E 1A7

A perennial favourite for any fashion girl (or any girl, for that matter), Zara does Celine-esque separates better than anyone. They do a great job of incorporating popular runway trends into wearable designs for the fashionable masses. They also have an amazing shoe selection; I buy most of my affordable shoes here!

Aritzia

1110 Robson St, Vancouver, BC V6E 1B2

Founded in Vancouver, this well-known Canadian brand has made a name for itself at home and in the U.S. Aritzia is known for its cozy knits, gorgeous silks and luxurious accessories. They do have a mid-to-high price point, so invest in more classic pieces (think sweaters, pants, blazers). My favourite purchase from here has been an Aritzia x Mackage leather jacket that just gets softer with age.

Plenty Stores

Yet another Vancouver-based brand, this store has become somewhat of a cult for locals ever since it first started in 1989. Their Big Blue brand jeans are some of the best (and most affordable) I’ve ever purchased and they have lots of great in-house brands for a unique shopping experience. Plenty has five locations in B.C. and one in Calgary.
