A New Identity
Whether it's from the house of Chanel or Alexander Wang, leggings or sleek little dresses, there's more leather than ever these days. And if your closet needs a boost of something buttery, there's a new store in South Granville you must see.
Known
in the wholesale industry as experts in leather, Marquis of London has
a new label name and its first retail store, Identify. While the space
is simple and unassuming, the leather outerwear, all designed in
Vancouver, is quite divine. The perfect motorcycle jacket made in grey
($450), a cool toggle coat in crinkly black ($625) and a hip hooded
zip-up ($475) were all begging to be bought. And that's just the
leather. There's also a plaid equestrian jacket with suede elbow
patches and tweed blazer with of-the-moment zipper detailing (both
$350) to mull over.
That's five different jackets we identified with. Here's hoping the significant other will still identify with us when we bring them all home.
Identify, 2662 Granville St., Vancouver, 604-736-8885.
