Vancouver shop notes: Lady Libertine

Johnson Hartig’s label isn’t fashion’s only Libertine. Joining the South Granville retail rise is Libertine Boutique (2715 Granville St., 604-732-7311, libertineboutique.ca). Owner Suma Men Peever, a lawyer in her past life, has an eye for timeless pieces. Her lineup—available in a palette of modern neutrals, from nudes and greys to marine and evergreen—includes Irwin & Jordan, Kristina Ti, Isabel Benenato and Nude. Looking for party attire? Snag one of Sophie Theallet’s resort frocks, a statement Iosselliani necklace or a metallic python purse from Sang A. This boutique also carries a selection of French perfumes, lingerie and homewares, so you can shop for gifts too.
