6. Atelier New Regime
Established in Montreal in 2009, Atelier New Regime is a streetwear label created by Setiz Taheri and brothers Koku and Gildas Awuye. The trio used to sell slogan t-shirts out of their trunks until 2013 when their side hustle turned into a real fashion brand. Five years later, they won Menswear Designer of the Year at the CAFAs. Nowadays, ANR has a storefront on Notre Dame Street West in one of Montreal’s busiest neighbourhoods. The store’s interior is painted bright orange as a nod to the brand’s signature colour. Their range of clothing, accessories and shoes is designed for the modern man, drawing inspiration from street style, Hip-Hop, and the city’s cultural diversity.
