Our Holiday Hours

Tattered Rose a Century Ago

If Tattered Rose (the shop) had existed a hundred years ago, this is what it would have looked like....the customers, at least.

BLACK FRIDAY SURPRISE SALE....That's today!

Tattered Rose never has HUGE sales, as such, although we DO always have a sale rack at the back of the store.

So, even though other stores are having 50% - 70% off for Black Friday sales, that just doesn't work for us.
 
Why? Because most of the clothing we sell isn't trendy, "throw-away" clothing and therefore to be gotten rid of. That type of clothing isn't what we were built on although we DO have a smidgen of it for our trendier customers.

Most of our clothing is timeless, and romantic, vintage or vintage-inspired.....as well as one-of-a-kind hand made designs.
So 10% off all black merchandise in the store, plus 10% off already marked down clothing on the sale rack is a big deal for us.

We just wanted to be part of the fun of BLACK FRIDAY....which is an idea that originated in the USA, the day after Thanksgiving.

I'll be wearing black (of course)
All day today only...a Tattered Rose sale!

Surprise BLACK FRIDAY Sale!

BLACK FRIDAY @ TATTERED ROSE!

On Friday, November 27th only, we are offering a 10% discount on ALL BLACK clothing, accessories and jewellery. One day only. 

One time event.....let's have fun with this!

Also, we have added a LOT of black Sympli the Best as well as other clothing to the sale rack. 10% off the already marked down price of that that stuff too!

The Ramblings of A Shopkeeper in Edmonton

This is the thing....
You never know what you will find at Tattered Rose. We have vintage, new, hand-made, hand-dyed, romantic, girly, business like, and swirly.

Fabrics like velvet & lace and linen & jersey....made into some of the most unusual, romantic, unexpected, lovely, downright pretty clothing you have seen in ages, if ever.

We have long skirts and gowns, fringed suede jackets and maxi coats you won't see anywhere else because they are designed and made by the owner only for Tattered Rose!

Tapestry. Oh, we love brocade & tapestry and did we mention velvet? One of our specialties!

You can be 14 or 89 and find something you would love to wear at TR. Is it OK if we call it TR for short?

We love clothing and jewellery and home decor and we have it all in one cool place, with exposed pipes and shabby walls and concrete floors and chandeliers.

Does any of this make sense? it will if you just come in and see for yourself.

The owner, well that's me, is far from your average shop owner. It's more personal than that for me. I love helping women find their true selves. I love clothing and design and display...I could go on but you get the drift. My love of what I do, hopefully shines throughout the store.....with a little help from the chandeliers, as previously mentioned.

Please don't let our short & sweet hours (Wed-Fri 11-4 and Sat 11-3) stop you from making a trip down to the shop. It will be worth your while.....promise♥

Please Shop Local

Shopping local makes so much sense to me, I suppose I am more aware than the average shopper because I own a local small business (retail store)

It is so true that if we all strive to spend more of our $$ right here where we live, rather than send the money to China or somewhere else, we improve our own economy, lives and retail landscape.

I know many of you like to shop online, in your p.j.'s. But if you make a small effort to get out to some of the local shops (and I don't mean the big chain stores in malls) but the the small businesses that are operated by a family or even a single person....they have put their hearts & souls into creating a little oasis from the world for you to peruse.

As small business owners, we are closer to the pulse of what's happening and try our best to bring you interesting items that you might want. It's no easy task to forsee what you might be looking for but we do a pretty great job of it.

You can touch and feel, try on the clothing and look in the mirror to see if it suits your body shape and skin tone. I am always honest with my customers about what looks good on them and what is not so good.

Then, you can have your purchases wrapped and placed in a bag that you get to carry out of the store with you. And there's the getting home and unwrapping your purchases and you can feel good that you have helped to support the local economy and the people who work and live around you.

I know I'd much rather shop in quaint little independently owned shops and have personal service and conversation than to buy from a faceless online seller who is somewhere else, supporting their own agenda and economy.

Let's all try to spend just a bit more of our time & money finding things right here in our own beautiful city. Makes for a much more interesting city to be in, I think.

Happy shopping....and to all of my wonderful, loyal customers who make a point of shopping at Tattered Rose...thank you from the bottom of my heart♥
