Vancouver Notes: Peel Designs

Who knew Grandma’s wardrobe could be so cool?

You already raid your mother’s and sister’s closets, so why not ferret in Vancouver designer Megan Berks’ grandmother’s wardrobe as well? That’s where she found inspiration for Fall 2006 at Peel Designs (peeldesigns.com). Brocade and lace dresses are updated with contemporary cuts, while modern designs such as fleece hoodies ($140) are backdated with dozens of vintage buttons from Grandma’s attic. At Life of Riley (3697 Main St., 604-876-7655).
