Les Folles Alliees is a vintage and secondhand items shop for eccentric clothes and accessories. The shop has some really unique outfits for almost all eras from 1920's till date. The decor of the shop is so lively and colorful giving a pleasant shopping experience. Walk in to get the vintage attire collections for any occasion under the sun.
Boasting furniture, accessories and objets d'art from the 20th century, this little store is like IKEA for those who would not be caught dead shopping at a superstore. Still, many colors, shapes and designs here are quite reminiscent of the Swedish giant's more upscale products; there is a definite slant towards Scandinavian design. It makes a great stop on any tour of the shops on Rue St-Denis, and for those with the budget it is a source of limitless unique gift ideas.
As hard as it is to believe, Rue St-Denis is home to two separate boutiques devoted entirely to medieval clothes and paraphernalia. Here in the Red Dragon's Workshop you will find swords and maces with which to fight the Black Knight, and chain mail armor to ward off his counter-attacks. It is all too easy to get caught up in the bodices, lavish undergarments, outrageously ugly picture frames, books, CDs and intriguing medieval musical instruments. The staff are certifiably nuts about their chosen obsession, and are eager to guide you through their bizarre inventory.
In the heart of the hippest shopping on Rue St-Denis is this landmark natural food store. From the outside it looks more like a simple herbalist; the window display offers a nice selection of gift baskets and cosmetics. Inside, however, you will also find vitamins, fruits and vegetables, cheeses and ultra-healthy ice cream alternatives. Prices are not the most reasonable; this is no college co-op. But for high-end merchandise and high-end customers, this is perhaps Montreal's most upscale option for organic food.
