“It” Store
Fashion nerds, shopping addicts and bargain hunters alike can rejoice! Cheapie retailer Forever 21 – the US’s answer to Swedish-born H & M – is launching this summer in the Gap’s old digs at the corner of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto. Six more will open across the country by the end of 2008.
If you haven’t been to a store in the States or browsed the site, Forever 21 is chock full of colourful, affordable fashion and accessories for ladies and gents. The “It” Book recommends a pre-shopping-spree meditation session so you don’t hyperventilate when you cross the threshold. So much to see! So much to buy!
“It” Gossip
Wrap-dress pioneer, Diane Von Furstenberg filed a lawsuit against Forever 21 for allegedly ripping off her dress designs. DVF and an entourage of other designers and fashion insiders are asking the lawmakers on Capitol Hill in Washington to protect original clothing designs by changing copyright laws.

I AM SO EXCITED FOR FOREVER 21 TO COME TO TORONTO!!
I hope "Summer, 2007" means June 21 and not August 30.
dammit! now when i come home to visit all of my toronto friends are going to know i'm wearing cheap knock-offs instead of the real thing!
When I lived in Edmonton I had no idea how lucky I was! (Why did Edmonton get one before Toronto?) Anyways- article about Forever 21 in the New York Times http://tinyurl.com/2v32ac
