Review from Denise S.

My go-to place to shop for denim. They know their jeans here and you can be sure you'll walk out with a great pair. I bought my last 2 pairs of Fidelity jeans (buy Canadian!) here during their big summer sales. I often find with jean sales the styles/washes are really weird/unflattering, but if you go at the right time, you can find some awesome deals here on *nice* styles 30-50% off. The best sales are in July and January.
The location is a lot more crammed than the Danforth one, but they pack in a lot of selection. Some jeans are stacked on the high shelves, but the staff are happy to bring some piles down for you to sift through (sorted by size). They also have a small but nice variety of jackets, tops, and shoes. Mens stuff is at the back. Staff are sweet and helpful, not pretentious or pushy at all (*cough cough... Over the Rainbow*). They give you their honest opinion and share helpful tips, like how to wash your dark denim in salt water first so that they don't fade as much. Only downside is that there are no mirrors inside the change rooms, a pet peeve of mine.Listed in: Shop 'til you drop

I purchased a pair of $220 jeans on Tuesday. I put them on last night and noticed that the stitching between the zipper and the crotch was completely undone. I took them back today, expecting to exchange them for another pair. Instead I was told (by the woman who sold me the jeans YESTERDAY) that I had to wait a week so that the store could "check with the manufacturer" to see if they could give me a credit/exchange my purchase. I am now left with no jeans, no $220 and uncertainty as to whether or not I will get my jeans or my money back. I was told it was "store policy." They need to learn something about customer service. I can't fathom why anyone would continue to shop at a store that thinks so little of its customers.

I love the lace dress I bought there, but later realized it is such a low quality piece, for $50. The dress was actually forever 21 dress (they denied it in store when I asked them), and they simply jacked up the price!

Funky and fresh, Body Blue rocked my world.
This shop has so much variety and so many unique items. Sure, they only carry a small number of each item, but I really only need one anyways :)
The staff are awesome. Totally unpretentious and very helpful. I know they work to make a sale, but really, if I ran back and forth with almost a dozen different items for a person who clearly stated "this just isn't THE ONE, and I'm really just looking to leave with one" I don't think I would have been quite as patient.
Totally love my garment, it not only looks gorgeous but it's also very decent quality. I can say that because it has been through the wash a few times now and still looks new.
I have already been back to browse a few times and bragged about to all my friends. -

One of the best shopping experiences I've ever had. The staff is extremely friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. They knew a lot about their brands and the neighborhood. Walking in to Body Blue you see tons of jeans on display. The mens' section is in the back and they carried my two favorite brands of shirts, Ben Sherman and Penguin, as well as my favorite brand of jeans, Seven For All Man Kind. The womens' section is large and full of designer jeans, shirts, and dresses.
Overall, It was as if this store was custom made for me and the staff are the friendliest in the neighborhood by far. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. The prices are about on par for the brands available but the selection is amazing. -

Funny, my thoughts abut this store is totally different! I find the staff totally pretentious. Not a very friendly place. The store is so stuffed, it is hard to move around in. My pet peeve is to be given a different size then you ask for. The staff assume that you don't anything about buying a pair of jeans. Buying a new pair of jeans is hard enough, to be given a pair too small, because the staff " know better". I also agree with other reviews, dresses seem to be of poor quality. This store is not on my list for jeans.
