…according to their website. I am assuming that J.Crew will be taking the current Harry Rosen spot (Harry is moving to what used to be McDonald’s later this year) as I can’t think of any other place it COULD go right now (unless Jacob is downsizing and moving elsewhere. But J.Crew is a third floor store, not second). Based on floorspace alone, a takeover of Harry Rosen would likely mean that unlike the Yorkdale location, the Eaton Centre store will carry men’s clothing. While J.Crew will NOT be selling petites at the store (though one can hope), Express DOES have shorter length pants (from what I can recall, anyway). Only trouble is, both brands are KNOWN to vanity size, and vanity size in a pretty extreme manner (though I can fit into SOME things at J.Crew, particularly items that are sized 00). As a downtowner, however, at least I won’t have to go all the way up to Yorkdale to get my J.Crew fix!
Two of many stores that will be opening at the Toronto Eaton Centre soon
Just as I asked about Yorkdale last year, what stores would YOU like to see at the Eaton Centre (or in Toronto in general)? Personally, I’d love to see Ann Taylor/LOFT, Kate Spade (I have a feeling this might come soon), Tory Burch, Reiss and for the Bay Queen Street to open the full range TopShop soon (Queen Street *IS* a flagship, is it not? Why is the first store at Yorkdale, then?) . I’d also LOOOVE to see a Christian Louboutin boutique (though this would probably open either at Yorkdale or somewhere in the Bloor-Yorkville area and NOT the Eaton Centre).
