Review from Val G.
5/2/2010
I needed an outfit for a cabaret themed party and after posting a help notice on another social media site, the ever knowledgeable Laura C. came to my aid and suggested Reflections Vintage on Yonge St.
The family that runs the store, especially the daughter, were very helpful and found several dresses that suited the style I needed for me to try on.
I found an elegant black '20s style dress with a gold belt across the waist and pearls sewn into it for $52. The best part about this outfit is that I can wear it to any occasion, it's so versatile and not so 'costumey' like you'd find at non-vintage costume shops. I received numerous compliments of it throughout the evening on how well it suited me.
They also had flapper style hair bands, costume jewelry and a good selection of vintage pieces. I was able to get everything I needed for my outfit in one stop and for a reasonable price.
If you are going to a themed or costume party of any kind, I definitely recommend stopping by here for an original costume find. The selection of dresses is massive and you are sure to find a treasure or two. -

Shortly before Christmas I still had a few names on my list that I was drawing a huge blank on. One of whom was my mother-in-law. Boy and I had a few things picked out, but it needed something else --I'm big on thoughtful gifting.
His family is Indian, and they really enjoy symbolism. I'd read somewhere that giving a gift in the form of an elephant suggests that you hold the recipient in very high regard. Nothing could be more true, so when I noticed a large selection of sparkling brooches, several of which were shaped like elephants, I had to stop in. The father and daughter who were minding the shop were great, and while helping me pick out the perfect gift, we chatted easily. I browsed about for a while --there's so much to look at there-- and managed to find a few pretty hair pins to glam out an up-do I'd recently mastered.
Great selection, great prices, family-owned and operated. I will most certainly be back, in search of more pretty unique pieces that you wont find in a chain store. I would not recommend going here if youre in a rush, because there is a TON to look at and it can be a bit overwhelming. I also would not recommend going during busy times, (like the day before halloween?) because its not a very big space and with costumes covering every available surface and even the ceiling, I imagine it would become claustrophobic hell in a hurry. Pick a quiet Tuesday afternoon when you have time to browse and I guarantee you'll have a ball.
The perfect ending to this little tale: His mother loves the brooch, and my hair looked fabulous. -

One of the best spots for vintage and unique costumes!
If you don't want a pre-packaged costume (or even if you do), this theatrical store has items that no one else will have.
A lot of the clothing and accesories are donated by charities, so you might have to sift through a few racks. This place reminds me of a vintage/costume Winners but in a super small space. The owner's daughter is very helpful, I definitely needed to ask for help to find what I was looking for.
For Halloween, they move some of their regular stock around to make room for costumes. Also, they have a lot of great pre-packaged costumes and I found them about $10 - $15 dollars cheaper than other stores that I checked out online. This store also caters to the transgender community and they have a whole back room of costumes.
Throughout October, they continuously bring in new stock. So, I was going often to see what new offerings they had. I heard that there are lineups to get into the store close to Halloween, so I advise trying to get here earlier in the month.
Life needs more masquerade parties! Someone host a costume ball so I can buy more stuff from here. =) -

I'm also adding to Val's review below.
When it's October and Halloween time, they pull out from the back their whole costume selection. I'm not sure what it's like an regular days, but I was told they stock up certain things, and pull them out depending on occasion (like Christmas, Gay Pride, Halloween etc).
I went there on halloween week, and they had a crazy selection of costumes, and you can tell them what you're looking for and your price range and they will def. have something for you
