Among the mostly-vintage shops of Dundas West, there’s one full of
brand-new things to love.
Woodlawn, a
boys-and-girlswear boutique, imports cult and heritage labels from all
overBrooklyn, Florence, Londonbut feels distinctly Canadian. There’s a
homespun vibe to the wears; the shop itself feels cottage-y, vaguely
authentic. You can buy sweet-‘n’-fresh dresses, unisex sunnies and sharp
patent oxfords at any indie shop, but here the labels are unexpected:
Family Affairs, Han Kjobenhavn, and Industry of All Nations,
respectively. Bright espadrilles and rope-handled totes are beach-ready,
and for the menfolk, I recommend a YMC raincoat and a WeWood (no, really
it’s wood) watch. SNP
