Fall seems to be setting in and it’s a little too chilly to head to the beach, so we’re all huddled away here at Workshop gearing up for our wild and wonderful FALL TRUNK SALE: September 26th-30th! The big opening party will be on Thursday September 26th at 6pm where there is sure to be the best of deals, some fun goodies for munchin’, extra changerooms and all the all around joy of getting a sweet deal on handmade goodies!
The fun doesn’t end there though, because we’ve decided to officially hold the sale over for the whole weekend – this is for those of you who give us those sad puppy dog faces when you can’t make it the night of the event. And because the sale is going to go on for 5 days, we have even more designers involved and even more great canadian made stuff at fantastic prices! But don’t forget that on Monday we start packing things up and then everything goes back to the designers, so don’t miss it!
For those of you who are new to the cult of the trunk sale, here are the basics: once in the Spring and once in the Fall Workshop invites a few of their favourite designers to participate in our trunk sale: they ship us tons and tons of great clothes, accessories and jewelry which are from past seasons collections, slightly damaged items, weird sizes (the xs people clean up at this event!), samples, etc! Our designers get to clean out their studio spaces and our customers get to pad their closets! The deals are great – up to 70% off!
More details and sneak peeks can be found on our facebook event page!
Put it in your calendar and don’t forget to join us!

Hey Workshoppers!
The snow is melting, the crocuses are starting to peek through the soil, the birds are singing and we’re dusting off our bikes getting ready for Spring. While we know that we might still get another taste of winter after this week of awesome warm weather, the Workshop Gals know it won’t last because of the Workshop Spring Trunksale is just around the corner and it’s how we really kick off the Spring Season!
That’s right folks! We’ve set a date for our infamous Spring Trunksale and we’re giving you all a chance to revamp your spring wardrobes at serious discounts. Our 5th annual Spring Trunksale is going to be our biggest to date. Mark your calendars ladies, the sale will start April 5th from 6pm to 9pm for our kick off party. If you can’t make it Thursday, no sweat, we’ll be holding the sale over until Sunday April 8th at 5pm. After that we’re packing up all the goods and sending ‘em back to make even more room for brand new spring shipment. With over a dozen participating designers you’re sure to find something great to spruce up your wardrobe without breaking the bank.
Be sure to keep an eye on our Workshop Facebook and/or Twitter pages to catch the sneak peeks of the goodies that are going to be part of the sale. With saving of 40% up to almost 85% off you won’t want to miss this awesome event!
Hope to see you there!

lovely lousje & bean party dress! reg $259, trunk sale $99!
trunk sale opening night came and went and we are still reeling…was it the steady stream of happy shoppers laughing in the changerooms? was it the racks and racks of better than ever deals on great handmade goodies? maybe the duck and blueberry crostini from murray street market? i can’t be certain, but i can say definitively that this has been our best trunk sale yet!
if you missed opening night, do not fret! there are still tons and tons of great pieces at a fraction of their regular prices…so stop by today, tomorrow or anytime sunday…but don’t wait until monday, because all of our trunk sale items turn into pumpkins (meaning we pack them up and ship them back to the ladies who made them…we don’t actually turn them into pumpkins, although that would sure be a fun idea).

i am really going to miss the superb signs that erin molly has been making at workshop! they are like little unwrapped gifts that she leaves on the sidewalk to brighten everyone’s day! this is one of my favourites – partly because it is soooo cute and partly because it announces one of my favourite events…THE TRUNK SALE!
