Crocodile Rock
We remember when we followed The Official Preppy Handbook right down to the letterman jacket.
Then '80s prep made way for '90s grunge and the popped collar went from iconic to ironic. But the croc is rocking fashion once again with Montreal playing host to Lacoste’s first concept boutique in Canada. With two levels and over 2260 square feet of space, including a dedicated POLO Room, where you can find the entire range of polo shirts, including our fave featuring a cute slightly puffed sleeve ($95). Lest you fear the brand is stuck in the 80s, we located a pair of white harem pants ($225) and a graphic tee stating “The Crocodile Loves You” ($195) from the recent Lacoste and Malandrino collaboration ($225).
We’re heading to the Hamptons in style. —Jennifer Nachshen
