New Millennium
We can't get enough of vintage-inspired pieces, especially those that take influence from the late '90s and early '00s. Here are some of our favourite boutique Canadian designers bringing the Y2K flavour!
#1. Eliza Faulkner
Made in Montreal, Eliza Faulkner's pieces bring the late '90s style. We love her rave-inspired mesh tops, as well as her voluminous fleece and denim pieces that nod to JNCO Jeans.
#2. Eugenia Chan
Eugenia Chan is a Toronto-based jewelry designer who we adore for her acetate claw clips! Available in every pattern under the sun, these Y2K hair accessories will step up your clip game.
#3. A Bronze Age
Based in Vancouver, we love the early '00s influence in A Bronze Age's clothing. Whether it's their slip dresses, flare pants or scrunchie purses, this Canadian boutique fashion designer brings the fun.
#4. CoutuKitsch
Nothing is more Y2K than a little gold chain, hoop earring and claw clip combo! Based in Calgary, CoutuKitsch is a Canadian accessory brand brings all of the above at an affordable price.
#5. Shelter
Made in Vancouver, Shelter's pieces are well-thought out and well-made. We love their Brewers Pants, which come in many colours and wouldn't look out of place in a Y2K music video.
#6. True Middle
True Middle is a Toronto-based LGBTQ+ owned brand that makes pearl and bead necklaces. We love the vintage inspiration and 2000s vibes from their pieces!
#7. Odeyalo
Montreal slow fashion designer Odeyalo is perfectly attuned to the Y2K trend. We love the bright colours of their basics like the Brook Tee and the Tincset Top.
#8. Zenny Jane
Handmade in Toronto, Zenny Jane is a woman-owned jewelry brand that makes vintage-inspired pieces for now. We love how her pieces feel like grown-up friendship bracelets!
