I was thrilled to discover Lola and Gigi! This online and by appointment boutique caters to women size 12+ who are searching for high quality pieces that look good on their bodies. After perusing the online pictures, I decided I really wanted to have the full senses experience — feel the fabrics, and see the true colours of these beautiful garments. I immediately booked my appointment with Laura, the bubbly and style savvy owner, and made my way north to her 427 and Finch location.
The trip was well worth it! I immediately fell in love with two designers – Anna Scholz and Melissa Masse — who both have collections filled with glorious dresses. Of particular interest to me was this Anna Scholz silk wrap dress with bright yellow lilies that is perfect for a tall curvy woman who wants a piece that can go from day to evening.
The David Kahn jeans also caught my eye, as this is a popular brand I recommend to all my clients with hips. Lola and Gigi is the only store in Canada that carries David Kahn jeans in plus sizes — sweet!
If you’re a 12+ woman who tends to make a clothing purchase only “because it fits”, Lola and Gigi will change the way you shop. At this fabulous boutique, you will fill your change room with pieces that not only fit, but that you love!
Always on the lookout for Toronto’s best boutiques!
