Shops in Edmonton with perfect party clothes

When you don’t know what to wear to your next gathering, take some time to go beyond your usual stores and seek out those with unique brands and high-quality clothes (nothing says tacky like ripping your party pants). These stores offer up some of the best party clothes in Edmonton.

Sonia's Runway

1
10863 23 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T6J 7B5

If you have a gaggle of girlfriends who all need party outfits for the office party, you can book Sonia’s Runway for a private shopping experience. Or, if you want to get your hands on the best outfit first, go solo and browse through their selection of American classics, like Michael Kors, and European brands, such as Nougat London and Cambio (from Germany).

Red Rouge Boutique

2
80 Chatwin Rd, Sherwood Park, AB T8H 2S6

This teeny, tiny ladies wear boutique in Sherwood Park has some hidden gems, perfect for a party full of the same-old, same-old outfits. They carry a lot of big-name designers, such as Rebecca Minkoff and Joie. The store offers a personal shopping option and the owners will even style you for an event, free of charge, if you call and book an appointment with them.

BCBGMAXAZRIA

3
11100 51st Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T6H 4M6

Whenever I see someone in a truly fabulous, shiny, distractingly beautiful dress, it is more often than not from BCBG. Their cocktail dresses have feathers and bows and ruffles galore! Their elegant evening gowns are long and classy without being boring. Any party where you need to look absolutely, ridiculously amazing – this is the place. It might be a peplum, it might have a cut out, the straps might be too complicated to handle after some cocktails, but you will be the talk of the party.

Anthropologie

4
2154-8882 170 Street NW, Edmonton, AB T5T 4J2

I love Anthropologie’s collection of cute dresses that look like something Taylor Swift might wear strolling the streets of New York (so, what us mere mortals would wear to a party). Their pieces are always structured, made from high quality fabrics and designed to flatter. Plus, the range of what you’ll find here is amazing.

Who Cares Wear Ltd

5
11222 Jasper Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T5K 2V2

This two-level store is deceptively small but it’s brimming with good finds. They carry awesome brands that you might not find elsewhere, like Tracy Reese (buy one of her capes to wear as your coat to the party and it can double as a shawl if you get cold).

Scottish Imports Inc - Forever Tartan

Gentlemen, if you want to stand out in the crowd from the everyday hustlers, throw on a kilt. They are not just for weddings! You can celebrate your Scottish heritage (or, you know, the fact that you’ve always wanted to wear a kilt) any time of year. If you’re curious about a kilt but don’t want to fully commit, you can rent one.

Whether you’re shopping for a wee babe or yourself, is there anything cozier than a onesie? Perfect for camping trips or hanging out at home on the couch (or in the crib),onesies are versatile and comfy – plus, is there anything a baby looks cuter in? These stores sell the most adorable onesies on the market. [Image credit: iStock.com/martinedoucet]
Kombucha tea, a slightly bubbly fermented drink made with a green or black tea base, is a sweet but healthy alternative to pop. Makers claim it can aid in digestive health, plus it just tastes fantastic. Often made from organic, raw ingredients, kombucha teas have exploded in popularity in the past decade. These Edmonton shops carry a variety of brands, including some Canuck favourites.
Linens may seem like a boring thing to purchase, but, if you search the right shops, you can find the most plush, decadent bath towels and pretty kitchen linens you’ll ever see. Having high quality bath towels is essential for a happy life and lovely kitchen linens – well, that just makes your kitchen all the more beautiful and fun.
