twigg&hottie was founded in January 2003 by Glencora Twigg and Christine "Hottie" Hotton. We started off making one of a kind items mixed with vintage and re-worked. We were still in design school when we launched. Our skills progressed and our designer base has grown. We are now able to offer the hottest looks by over 50 young Canadian designers. And we're growing. We are now three; Jessica Vaira joined us in August 2006. We joke that she is the 'ampersand' in twigg&hottie-and in fact she is. Her earthy, practical style bridges Christine's "Art It Girl" look and Glencora's classic tailored pieces.

The three of us juggle the inner workings of the store and all the extra after hours gigs that come along with this fun, crazy, creative, demanding, exhilarating, and challenging industry. When you visit us check out the three house labels: twigg&hottie, Michael and Clementine by Glencora, Christine and Jessica respectively. We are friendly and creative and love to chat about all the beautiful people and products that we represent. So introduce yourself when you come in and we'll give you the low down on all that's new.
