I never write reviews, but this store definitely deserves it! I walked in and (unfortunately I didn’t get her name) but the lady that was there was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I was searching for a maxi fancy dress, and she was super patient with me, showed me around various styles that she has. Unfortunately, I didn’t find what I was looking for. However, her service was amazing to a point she asked me when I wanted it for, and started recommending other boutiques she knows of that caters to what im looking for exactly. She named all stores that she could possibly think of, and then even took it an extra mile to go online on their sites and search for styles and show me different price points. She even offered to call a neighbouring store to ask the owner(who she knows) if they’d stay open a little late for me. Before I left, she said that if I still couldn’t find what I was looking for after trying the stores she suggested that she would be willing to connect over email or the website’s live chat with me to try and find suppliers and try to find me the exact style I’m looking for. I could clearly tell how much she loves her job! Talking to her was lovelyyy and her willingness to help me search for dresses even if not from her own store was just so heartwarming!

I love this store (have so many pieces from the NATION line, the most comfortable for travel), unique and classic pieces at various price points and different styles. The quality is always amazing. Service is always so knowledgeable and friendly. Truly an incredible spot for women's fashion in Ottawa.

Was excited to check this place out when I was told about itWent in specifically looking for boots and checked many other items, most everything is poorly made and most likely comes out of a sweat shop in china that uses child labor, with the labels changed, be very leery about this place, definitely not a store of high fashion

Excellent service and a great variety when looking for something special for my wife. Chantal is always helpful and her store is a destination for both locals and tourist, it’s a Byward market gem.

schad is my NIRVANA! Want the best service, with the owner on the floor, the most exquisite lines from around the world -- unique and coveted by fashionistas around the world? Then schad is the place for you. Truly. I don't rave about a lot of places, but I will rave about this boutique, from the roof tops. If you have not shopped here, you need to. NOW!I have been a client of this business since the owner Chantal Biro-Schad started out on Elgin Street. I have shopped in all of their locations and have LOVED every second of every experience. These two genuine, artistic and gifted entrepreneurs really started the locally-owned retail revolution in Ottawa. And they have written the book on service.Want to be on the cutting edge? Get yourself to schad. Chantal brings into her boutique lines before ANYONE has heard of the designer, let alone owned a piece of that magic. I know that if a particular line is in schad, it is going to be THE hot item for the season. I came to know about SMYTHE Jackets because of Chantal. She was one of the first in the country to embrace the two brilliant jacket designers. Chantal made so many of us 'SMYTHE Girls' before the term became famous because of Catherine Middleton. I wore SMYTHE before 'Kate' did. Because of Chantal. And to this day, she carries one of the largest selections of each season's collection. Unreal. I have a gorgeous collection of SMYTHE jackets in my closets now. The last two purchased for this season.This year I have fallen in love with SET, My Sunday Morning Fr., to name just two. And why? Because Chantal brought them in and showed me how they were made just for me. Shopping at schad is not laborious. It is EASY. And so pleasant. I can text Chantal in the morning and tell her I have an event and guess what? As soon as I arrive a number of pieces that Chantal knows I will love are waiting for me to try on. Magic! The service is personalized, informed, professional and fun. Andre and Chantal's staff is equally schooled in the collections. Each member, fully-bilingual, is able to meet your needs. One of my favourites there? Lori. She knows what I need and want way before I think I do. HA! And she has exquisite taste. Chantal and Andre take great care in training the staff and ensuring they are an accurate representation of their exacting standards. In a city where non-personalized service, big box stores and outlets have come to be expected, schad rises high above the masses. It is my go-to boutique. Always and forever. Run, don't walk to schad/WOLF & Zed. You will not regret it.PS Try their online store if you are not in Ottawa. It is beautifully curated. LOVE!#shoplocal #supportlocal #schad #ottawa #SET #SMYTHEJACKETS
