Exuding an eclectic sense of boho-chic, Free People’s flower-child clothing is of a quintessential vintage, free-spirited style, and draws a cult following with the likes of fashion starlets Vanessa Hudgens, Taylor Swift, and Selena Gomez. Opening its 99th North American location tonight on South Granville, the boutique will also be the second in British Columbia, with the first in West Vancouver’s Park Royal.
Tonight’s celebratory opening soirée is open to the public from 5-9pm. The fête will be a “Taste of the Town” affair, featuring tasty delights from The Juice Truck, Cartems Donuts, and Finch’s Market Café. The early bird gets the worm with the first 50 guests receiving gift bags filled with items from (surprise) Free People, Tarte Cosmetics, and Amore Natural Products.
Free People South Granville is located at 2624 Granville Street.
