High End Dressing on a Budget

November 5, 2011 by Jennifer

High end designers lending their creativity to mass retailers is nothing new. I’ve bought great pieces by Isaac Mizrahi and Missoni at Target, and by Lanvin at H&M. Now Canadian retailer Reitmans is getting in on the action. Launching this week, Canadian fashion designer Marie Saint Pierre has partnered with Canada’s major women’s specialty retailer, resulting in an intriguing, and well-priced, designer collection.

Arriving in stores on November 10, these ten distinctive dresses are perfect for the holidays. I love the concept that designer fashion will become accessible to a new audience, and I LOVE these dresses. Click on the thumbnails to see them in all their glory.

The right jewelry could make this dress perfect 
for a night out at the ballet or a gathering at your neighbours’.

I like this one with some funky boots for a Girls Night Out.

Wear this with black tights and a blazer to the office, 
then ditch the tights and jacket for a holiday party after work!
The dresses are designed with all Canadian women in mind, including two dresses in plus size and two dresses designed specifically for petites. “We…wanted dresses that would fit different sizes of women at different ages without compromising the look,” says Marie Saint Pierre. “While we worked in different fabrics to be able to create these dresses at a very reasonable price, we have not compromised in style, shape, complexity and workmanship. The result is quintessential Marie Saint Pierre.”
Priced between $85 and $95, I expect these pieces will sell out fast. Get yourself to a Reitmans store quickly to get outfitted for the holidays!
