This is a review for the sari shop. I went in today looking for a ready-made blouse for a sari I've had for a while. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety and quality of the blouses and ended up having a wonderful shopping experience.
Funny enough, I actually purchased a new sari instead of a blouse, simply because they also had an excellent selection of classic yet modern saris that caught my husband's eye and inspired me to consider a new style. Clean classic lines. None of that kitschy bling that's prevalent in most Gerard Street shops' windows.
I selected a lovely cotton sari in darker hues with a golden border. They gave me a personal recommendation for three good tailors nearby where I can get my blouse custom-made. And, I also bought a very soft black petticoat to use with the new outfit. All in less than 15 minutes and at very reasonable prices for Canada. Yes!
The sales attendant was extremely professional - and clearly stylish herself - and I enjoyed her help, trusted her opinion and appreciated her recommendations.
Overall, my favorite part was that everything I touched was high quality and great style and that made my choice very easy.
Even though I have easy access to shopping in India, I enjoyed the selection so much that I am bookmarking the shop and will be back next time I need an Indian outfit. Thank you!
