Fashion has brought us to all of these cities and we’ve had the fortunate opportunities to experience what each city has to offer. We’ve wondered at New York’s skyscrapers, eyed Milan’s style, shopped Paris’ boulevards, explored Rome’s history and vibed off London’s cool. Each city has it’s own pulse, it’s own culture and flavor.

It’s too difficult to choose between these amazing cities, so we’ll leave that up to you! Of course, like any true souvenir, these bracelets will be available from June in the Dodo boutique of the city each is dedicated to. In celebration of the launch of their new e-store, Dodo will also make the souvenir bracelets available exclusively online for the month of May at store.dodo.it.

TRISTAN is all for sustainable design. The store features recycled wood components, sourced from noble trees aged on average 150 years, which have been discarded by traditional sawmill plants for their size or presence of metal objects. Saving these tress from landfills, the company revives these historical trees into high-quality hardwood floors and other wood furnishings – just one of the examples of TRISTAN’s commitment to sourcing and incorporating eco-friendly components into its everyday business practices.

Lighting was also an area of thought for the new flagship. Energy-efficient LED lighting throughout the store was specifically designed to imitate the warmth of natural light and also display a garment’s true colors. No more second guessing whether you’re holding black or navy!

Staying true to its Canadian roots, TRISTAN produces around 30% of its clothing locally in Canada, in the company’s own factories. “Made in Canada” labels clearly mark the garments in store, letting you know that you’re getting the authenticity of a product manufactured in Canada.

Take a tour of the new flagship store in the gallery below and be sure to visit at Yorkdale!
