Still looking for a Halloween costume?

Don’t worry. There’s plenty of inspiration and choices to be had at Flaming Angels Boutique.

Bustiers, corsets, masquerade masks, costume sleeves, gothic jewellery … the boutique carries a sea of items—including an in-house label of luxe mini top hats and handmade Venetian Dreams masks—for you to create a wide range of themes and characters.

What you won’t find? Pre-packaged costumes

“We want people to use their creativity for Halloween,” says designer and store owner Miriam Melanson.

To get you fully into the Halloween spirit, check out their costume fashion show, happening October 29–31 from 6–9 p.m. in the shop window (perhaps going down the street, too).
