The rumours are true; Zellers is returning to Canada. The beloved destination for family shopping trips, quick pick-ups and Hilary Duff–inspired finds closed most of its locations a decade ago, but it’s still one of the few Canadian retailers to spark nostalgia across the generations. In this 2023 reboot, shop-in-shops are slated to open in select Hudson’s Bay locations across the nation. Plus, the brand will launch an eCommerce site for the first time ever. Big thanks to all those Zellers fan accounts and #bringbackzellers hashtags for working their magic.

The collection, which was designed by Artistic Director of Jewellery and Watches Francesca Amfitheatrof, features bold style, contemporary shapes and unique details. From LV initials to iconic monogram flowers, there are plenty of signposts nodding to the French fashion house’s heritage.
