Looking to hit the streets and get chic? Check out Academy Road in
River Heights, where one stretch across eight blocks has everything
from that perfect cocktail dress, to really cool clothes for kids, to fancy-
pants macaroons that you'll surely want to Instagram. The same can be
said about Corydon Avenue, Winnipeg's former Little Italy where you
can hop from shop to shop – finding everything from jewelry to men's
wear – all on one walkable little stretch.
More locally made wears and fashionable numbers can be found in
Osborne Village, where the stores are door to door making it feel like
one big sidewalk sale (which you just may encounter in the summer).
And let's not forget about shopping the Exchange District, where
you'll find local designers and some amazing design stores all within
the handsome setting of Winnipeg's National Historic Site.
For the highest saturation of quality fashionable brands all under one
roof there is CF Polo Park and the Outlet Collection Winnipeg
(OCW). CF Polo Park is central Canada's largest mall, and is home to
brands like Anthropologie, Steve Madden, Urban Outfitters and so
many more, while OCW is the city's first and only fashion outlet, where
you can find great deals across nearly 100 brands, including Saks off

th
, Michael Kors, Nike and Under Armor.
Shopping
Whether your version of retail therapy involves a
mall, a chic neighbourhood, or a slew of big box
stores, Winnipeg has a spot for you.
