Individual boutiques wish to take advantage of the windfall from the Montreal Grand Prix, including a luxury clothing store on Peel Street which has for years attracted leading figures from the world of sport, business and politics.

Paul Teboul and Albert Cohen, co-owners of L'Uomo MontrealThe two owners of the L’Uomo boutique for over 40 years, Paul Teboul and Albert Cohen, opened the boutique’s guestbook for us — a true history book spanning dozens of pages. Canadian and Quebec prime ministers, North American and European sports stars, UN diplomats, Italian fashion designers, a billionaire, renowned artists — all have made their mark here.

Very high-end

You will not easily find the price tags on Kiton, Borrelli or Loro Piana garments in this store. “Price is not an issue for our customers. They come to choose the color of the jacket,” explains Mr. Teboul. He also shows us John Lobb shoes, still handmade today by artisans in England.

This international reputation is built on over 45 years of timeless elegance and passion carried by Cohen and Teboul. Clients who want to experience the boutique for themselves will find everything they need to build a complete look in 48 hours. And as Guy Carbonneau would confirm, a beautifully tailored suit from L’Uomo can truly turn heads.
