Allison Wonderland

One of our favourite West Coast lines, Allison Wonderland has been selling Vancouver-made fashion for almost 30 years! Founder Allison Smith graduated from the Fashion Design & Technology program at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, and then worked in the Montreal clothing industry before deciding to launch her own brand in 1998. Allison Wonderland's sister-brand PIllar was founded in 2011. Both brands are inspired by the 1970s and are full of playfulness and whimsy, but also incorporate slow fashion principles. Each item of clothing is made in Vancouver with small local businesses, and scraps are donated to used by local crafters.
