Oh hey, guess what? There's a world renowned corset atelier right here in Vancouver!…read more Seamstress and designer Melanie Talkington is the corestier here. She bases her designs after original 18th, 19th, and 20th century corsets, as well as creating originals. The store also sells garters, petticoats, corset covers, shoes, and other accessories. Wear a loose, light shirt when you visit, so the friendly and helpful staff can help you try something on and lace up. They can take your measurements and make a custom corset (starting at about $500) or you can do what I did and buy an off the rack model for about $225. Even though it wasn't custom, it does its job well and looks pretty too. I happen to be wearing it in my profile picture (underneath the clothes of course). Everyone should try it at least once. It's like a party in your waist, and all your sexy is invited. And there's no better place to do it in Vancouver.

I went in today about an hour before closing time. I was greeted by Alex, she was very friendly and…read morewas super supportive. I say this because I consider myself a MtF Transgender but in public I dress up as a boy. She gave me a quick tour of the store and I perused through to find really good quality lingerie. Of course they have more than that but I can attest to the quality. As I looked at all the corsets, and my goodness there were many :), I brought it up with her. She said they provide in-store fitting and that she could help me with this as well. I will hopefully visit soon to get one, it seems exciting and will definitely help me achieve a lovely figure. To keep it short and simple, I highly recommend you visit this store!

However, one of the owners, Ravi was simply marvelous! He gave me useful info about things to be aware of when shopping at other stores and the important issues to ascertain not only for Sarees but men's Kurtas as well. His gracious willingness to be a resource was truly commendable and because of this, I will definitely be returning to this business. Their jewelry selection is breathtaking and varied in style & price. And the Art pieces for home use are equally impressive and rare, so I'll be purchasing a few in the near future!

I visited Vancouver and was looking for alternative clothing stores. I found this one on Yelp and…read moredecided to check it out. I have to say I was absolutely THRILLED when I walked in the door. It reminded me of the old goth stores I used to shop at on Queen St in Toronto (Siren, Silver Cross, Nocturnalia). I haven't seen a store like this in YEARS and I miss them terribly. If I lived closer, I'd be buying things at Venus and Mars all the time! They had lovely frock coats, corsets, velvet dresses. . . My only complaint about the store is the costume-y stuff they carry. It really cheapens the feel of the place to have cheap 'dress up' stuff next to fabulous heavy velvet clothing. However, if I'm ever in Vancouver again, I would most certainly go back there. Goth clothing stores are few and far between these days and I'm very glad this one is still around.
