The Telegraph says Toronto is “a vintage heaven” and the destination for buying salvaged clothing

The Telegraph’s Stephanie Plentl came to Toronto recently and fell in love with the city’s healthy stock of vintage boutiques—not the musty ones in Kensington Market (well, aside from Roger D’Souza’s King of Kensington, Flashback and Flashback 2), but the shops that glisten and look as though they could have been curated by Patricia Field (costume designer for Sex and the City).
