Michel Brisson

Depuis son ouverture en 2002, la boutique Michel Brisson réconcilie les hommes avec la mode grâce à des vêtements chic et tendance qui leur donnent fière allure. Michel Brisson prend la mode masculine très au sérieux. Chaque année, il assiste aux grands défilés de Paris, de New York et de Milan et à d’autres présentations du genre afin d’offrir à sa clientèle les collections des plus grands créateurs et des plus grandes marques de prêt-à-porter masculin.

Quel que soit le style recherché, la boutique Michel Brisson tient tous les articles nécessaires pour permettre au mâle moderne d’avoir une garde-robe à ses couleurs, à sa mesure. Complets, cravates, jeans, tenues sport, looks avant-gardistes… Michel Brisson comble tous les besoins avec des fringues exclusives de griffes aussi réputées que Neil Barret, Dries Van Noten, Ermenegildo Zegna, Nudie Jeans, Tiger of Sweden et bien d’autres encore. Au besoin, un tailleur émérite effectue les retouches requises afin que chaque tenue tombe parfaitement et rende séduisant au possible celui qui les porte.

D’ailleurs, il suffit de mettre les pieds dans la boutique rue Saint-Paul, dans le Vieux-Montréal, pour aussitôt apprécier le raffinement du propriétaire. Les espaces, aménagés avec soin par Saucier + Perrotte Architectes, mettent la marchandise en valeur à merveille et procurent aux clients une expérience de magasinage extrêmement plaisante. Primé pour son excellence, leur design a de fait permis à la boutique d’être l’objet d’une belle couverture dans plusieurs publications internationales. Quand il est question de style, indéniablement, Michel Brisson sait faire!

Philippe Dubuc

Since his debut in 1993, Philippe Dubuc has had a passion for the dressmaking profession. “I am in a constant evolution with modernism and urban contrasts”, indicates Philippe Dubuc. “The identity of a city begins with its creators and from their free development.” His creativity and versatility are what inspires him to create complex collections. The Philippe Dubuc style is precise and is distinguished by his well-kept finishings, his mineral tones, and his textured and modern textiles that is reminiscent of the urban hunter and the romantic rebel.

Philippe Dubuc’s universe is lived by individuals of undisputable labels. The media were first to pay tribute to his work. Celebrities of the artistic world then followed suit by increasing the spotlight on his work. The rewards, recognitions, and invitations from abroad and sponsorships succeeded one another. During this vibrant path, the Philippe Dubuc boutique on St-Denis Street grants this Quebecois designer a privileged space amongst other big names in fashion. He shares with his partner Marie-Claude Gravel the desire to put on the forefront – Quebecois creativity and excellence.

OBSESSIONS for Fall 11|12

When I look for beautiful clothes designers, I have my small network of stores where I can find specials pieces. This week, I found on-line, om the Reborn website, a boutique where you can find a lot of designer stuff, in the Old port of Montreal. I pretty much like that boutique cause you can find exclusive's brands that you can't find in Montreal. The coat from Boris Bidjan Saberi is pretty good example of pieces you can find.

Black, oiled lamb leather jacket with single vertical zipper closure on front with printed interior lining, raw-edge detail on cuffs, signature piece construction throughout, high stand collar and extended pockets on either side.

100% Leather

$CAD 2699

Black, washed leather low laced boot with minimal seam detail and rubber sole.

100% Leather

$CAD 425

I really have preferences for sure values, when we talk about fashion. Indeed, I prefer a classic garment that I can wear season after season than a garment too trendy which I can't wear more than twice. I think these shoes from Common projects are a good exemple of what I said; the model remains trendy, without sinking however into the too much or the rigard. These are leather and have soles in rubber.

                                         

Graphic print bordered polaroid image square scarf.

100% Silk

$CAD 350

Finally, this is a real piece of art from a french designer, called  Philippe Roucou, its scarfs are completely georgious. Personally, I like the impressions on silk scarfs; that give you the feelign that you wear art.

Well, I hope to have made you discover  new address. Reborn is located in the Old Port of Montreal, but is accessible from your home online.
