Amy Renee York, the owner of Canadian boutique Nouvelle Nouvelle, shared her local shopping secrets as part of the ‘Girl About Town’ section in the current issue of N.E.E.T.. Here she gives the lowdown on more Vancouver-based designers…
Mono is designed by Heather Martin. Each piece is either handcrafted in her gastown studio or locally produced. She uses lace, felting, hand dying and unexpected silhouettes to incredible effect.
Body chains made from gunmetal and vintage sourced chains. One day of boredom in Paris (and a perpetual love for crafting) would soon evolve into a small jewelry line called The Woodland. With materials sourced from Paris to Portland, each piece is hand-crafted and made one-of-a-kind to give every piece distinctive character and worldly charm.
One of a kind recyled leather bags. Designer Randi Obenauer’s weakness for exquisite hand detailing, true quality craftsmanship and her love of garments that tell stories, lead her to rescue the most unlikely of leather cast-offs only to reincarnate them as one of a kind luxury bags.
Designer Amy Sky’s first collection debuted in Fall 2009. The line is about collaboration and making clothing as an expression.
