Sweater weather is here, and nothing says fall quite like a cozy oversized cardigan, a soft knit scarf, and a pair of leather ankle boots. If you’re looking to update your closet for the changing of the seasons, head over to West 4th in Kitsilano for Fashion on Fourth from October 12 to 15 for the shopping hub’s biggest fashion event of the year.
The Fashion on Fourth weekend will kick things off with a free event at Plain Jane Skinbar on October 12. Starting at 5:30 p.m., guests can mix and mingle at a happy hour social (for attendees 19+) featuring sparkling wine provided by Saintly Wine.
Happy hour will be followed by a talk with Vancouver fashion influencer Jillian Lansky of @theaugustdiaries, during which she will share her best style tips and tricks to get your wardrobe ready for autumn, as well as showcase her top fashion picks for the season.
The first 150 people in attendance at the Fashion on Fourth kick-off event will receive a complimentary oversized tote bag. Reserve your free ticket now at www.eventbrite.com.
From October 12 to 15, over twenty retailers along West 4th – including Monos and Knix – will be hosting in-store promotions and discounts for shoppers all weekend long. With the diversity of fashion-related businesses found along these eight blocks from Fir to Balsam in the heart of Kitsilano, it’s easy to see why West 4th is one of Vancouver’s top shopping destinations for style aficionados.
West 4th is home to some of Canada’s top apparel labels, such as Frank and Oak and DUER. Shoppers can head over to local boutiques like The Latest Scoop, Hills Dry Goods, and TurF for curated collections of clothing, accessories and lifestyle goods. Or, try your luck at the luxury consignment store Mine & Yours and score deep discounts on designer items.
