| - Sure the clothes here are high street facsimiles of pret-a-porter's finest, but for what it costs, and the sometimes dodgy workmanship I'm always amazed at how many compliments I get from my Gucci, Louis, Fendi, Prada label-whoring friends when I wear my Zara threads. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WJFjXtHcy4
The Bloor street Zara has the most up-to-date Woman collections versus the other locations so if it's the cream of the Zara crop, you can expect this location to get it first.
As other reviewers have stated help is dodgy, but personally I find if you can avoid the rush times (lunch, before closing and weekends) the associates are pretty helpful and nice. Also recognize that these people work in retail and are probably subject to a gross amount of rudeness by bougie bitches. I've witnessed shoppers here being unreasonably mean so many times so I can definitely sympathize with the employees. I'm not saying everyone who shops here is like that, but being civilly polite has always gotten me helpful service in spades here.
The best value I find is on their fashion denim line "Trafaluc" as they do an amazing cut and they fit my tuchas just right, much to my hubby's delight! The end of season sales are pretty awesome too! Last year on sale I got a puffy down/feather-filled coat for both me and my mum for under $100 each!!! My superficial fashion buddy mistook my Zara puffy for a Moncler, ha she paid $1000 for hers though!
If you want to look high street and have the fashion sense to pull it together, Zara will definitely help you get your swag on without having to spend mad cash money like a sucka!
