Marc Metrick, President of Saks Fifth Avenue expressed
"We are so excited to bring the best of Saks to Toronto.
After more than two years of planning, our entry into
Canada is truly a milestone for our company. We cannot
wait to bring the Saks experience of an elegant edit
of the best designer names, coupled with distinctive,
personalized service to Toronto."
Now in full swing, with first-rate expertise and exemplary
client services, Saks has already drawn crowds from near
and far with luxurious lines such as Dior, Valentino, Louis
Vuitton, Saint Laurent, Chloé, Céline, Prada, Alexander
McQueen, Stella McCartney, Givenchy and Alaïa.
Saks Fifth Avenue was the result of Horace Saks and
Bernard Gimbel’s vision to create a unique store that
exuded fashion, sophistication and refined living. The
two left their mark on society when they launched the
first dream store in 1924 in the heart of New York City.
Their collaboration was the beginning of what the world
would one day know as the shopping destination for taste
and elegance. As part of the Hudson’s Bay Company brand
portfolio with roots firmly planted in the United States
and locations around the world, Saks has since grown into
one of the world’s preeminent luxury brand retailers.
Setting the fashion pace of the public sphere by providing
nothing less than the best in men’s and women’s
international designer collections, expertly edited
assortment of handbags, shoes, jewelry, cosmetics, gifts
and services, Saks is the go-to place for the latest in style
straight from the runway.
Aside from the extraordinary top-tier brands such as
women’s advanced and emerging designer ready-towear—like
Etro and Proenza Schouler, men’s sportswear,
tailored clothing and men’s advanced contemporary – like
Rag & Bone and Vince, Saks has been working on giving
special attention to the impact of customer service on
your overall shopping experience.
