J. Crew has opened a 6,500 square foot store at Toronto’s 110 Bloor Street West, and it is reportedly the first in Canada to extensively carry the company’s more expensive and fashion-forward ‘J. Crew Collection’. The Collection features pieces that are considered to be ‘more complex’ than the regular-priced, somewhat conservative J. Crew line. 


J. Crew and neighbouring Brooks Brothers have replaced retail spaces formerly occupied by Guerlain as well as a 13,000 square foot Escada store. Guerlain moved to a neighbouring retail space at 110 Bloor, while Escada moved to a substantially smaller space (3,656 square feet) at 131 Bloor Street West, aka ‘The Colonnade‘.
