Forget about the usual stores, these limited-time-only pop-up shops are filled with holiday gift ideas.
1173 Robson Street December 14 to 2018Although its Gastown flagship is way bigger, the new Frank and Oak pop-up is all womenswear, all the time from its pint-sized 700-square-foot Robson Street perch. The minimalist Canadian brand first launched digitally then followed up with bricks-and-mortar outposts like this one that showcase its quiet, unstudied-cool kind of casual. frankandoak.com
Holt Renfrew, 737 Dunsmuir Street Now through March 5, 2018Delighting brides-to-be since 1837, Tiffany & Co.’s little blue boxes manage to stay timeless and classic yet always of-the-moment. This season, the iconic brand sets up a pop-up shop in Holt Renfrew where everyday objects undergo a serious upgrade (sterling silver yo-yos with American walnut; tin cans reimagined in sterling silver; paper cups reborn as bone china in Tiffany blue). tiffany.ca
Holt Renfrew, 737 Dunsmuir Street Now through January 13, 2018International contemporary art gallery Hauser and Wirth opens a new outpost in Hong Kong in Spring 2018 but before then, catch the pop-up bookshop in Holt Renfrew for a curated mix of book titles (the art of Louise Bourgeois) and objects designed by artists the gallery represents (limited edition cashmere blankets by Mary Heilmann, skate decks by Paul McCarthy). hauserwirth.com
4386 Main Street Now through December 24One of our favourite Pinterest-worthy charmers returns—the Little Mountain Shop’s annual Holid-eh! pop-up—with its array of handcrafted Canadian makers like Twenty One Tonnes, Petit Vilains Clothier Ltd and local Paper Label with their cozy jammies. littlemountain.space
348 Water Street Now through December 16Sunshine Coast-based Kenneth Torrance, curator and owner of Barter Design Co., hosts the brand’s first pop-up in Vancouver by way of Gastown. Peruse collaborations with B.C. artists and craftspeople—clay bowls, beeswax candles, wood-and-concrete planters—all at competitive prices (to keep distribution local) and ethical percentages (so artists and manufacturers can keep doing what they love to do without resorting to Kraft dinner). barterdesign.ca
