This location of Exile is the costume lover's paradise. I found a fun wig here for $15, which is a pretty good deal anywhere in this city, and offers way more reliability, selection, and much less lice than what you can find in second-hand stores.
There are plenty of weird, kitschy paraphernalia items and an excessive amount of sailors outfits -- more than should exist in the real world.
Note that in the month leading up to Halloween, this place gets a little crazy. No refunds are given for purchases in November, so you best think carefully about whether you really want to be that sexy nurse or not.Listed in: Toronto: On the vintage trail

Review from Lucy B.

A few years ago, Exile used to have some cute vintage finds at reasonable prices - $10 and $15 dresses and $30 leather jackets, for instance. A couple of days ago, I was in the mood for vintage shopping and my friend and I decided to trek to Kensington after not having been there a while. Exile was one of our first stops, and it was extremely, extremely disappointing. Crappy pieces in bad used condition with price tags that could only be justified by good quality and designer vintage. An old, brown wool circle skirt with MOTH HOLES and snags for $100...are you kidding me?! The dresses range from $30-$100 and most are in bad condition. The styles were...well, I could find the same ones at Goodwill for $4.99. Don't waste your time here - exile has clearly slid downhill and the selection and prices are shockingly bad.
