Be the first to preview our private prop room and personal storehouse of antiques and other objets d’art are finally being opened to the public.
To celebrate, we will also be hosting a ***STORE WIDE SALE*** on all your wardrobe needs.
Clothing may not make the (wo)man but it definitely helps them to feel damn good in their skin and goodness knows our personal, private and professional spaces would do well to be a little bit more sexy too.
To mark this very special occasion L&S will be hosting a grouping of esoteric professionals and age-old digestibles..
All the while partaking of salty and sweet ancient treats throughout the store while you shop! …
Don’t miss The BIG EVENT (or a chance to outfit yourself in the latest Muttonhead fall/winter kit!) this Saturday October 29th at 253 Queen Street west in Toronto.

#TRAVEL: Les Puces (Flea Market)
Paris is famous for it’s flea markets and antiques! The history of the flea market dates back over two centuries, when rag and bone men scoured through the garbage of Paris at night to find valuable junk to sell on. They were called ‘crocheteurs’ or pickers. The romantic term was ‘pêcheurs de lune’ or fishermen for the moon. Many set up their temporary stalls within the Paris walls, in sleazy neighborhoods but because these neighborhoods were full of pickpockets and thieves, they were chased out of the city walls to Clignancourt, Montreuil, Vanves, etc. The largest of these flea markets is the one at Clignancourt but the other two continue to this day.

Owner Russell Whitmore takes a curatorial approach to antique dealing, collecting select 18th to 20th century jewelry and objects with contemporary stylistic and cultural relevance. Ranging from Art Deco engagement rings to 18th century mourning jewelry to American folk art, the collection is varied, but carefully constructed. Our online shop shows an always changing small selection of the store’s inventory.
Start of brand new series MAHARANIS out this June at Mark Christopher Gallery, Parkdale, Toronto.
