KERRISDALE INSIDER Publisher’s Note Guide to Shops, Services, Food & Events
The festive season has arrived in Kerrisdale Village. As shops prepare for this time of year, there are plenty of reasons to visit, shop locally and enjoy a meal or coffee along the way. Choosing gifts from neighbourhood businesses supports the people who contribute to our community throughout the year. Christmas in Kerrisdale returns on December 5, 12, 19 and 23, hosted by the Kerrisdale Village Business Association. Enjoy free horse and carriage rides, and live music in the village. December also brings Gliding on Ice, a free skate at Kerrisdale Arena. Featured on the cover is Currans Lingerie, which has served the neighbourhood since 1964. Its experienced team offers professional lingerie fittings and personal attention in a relaxed setting. This issue introduces the three women behind the store and their connection to Kerrisdale. Also featured is Blara Organic House, a boutique offering clothing and essentials for babies and children. Its collections use GOTScertified organic cotton and plant-based dyes, with an emphasis on comfort and everyday wear. Families can shop locally for clothing, sleepwear, blankets and bath accessories.
sidewalk construction in Kerrisdale, work at the Arbutus Greenway and West 41st Avenue is expected to wrap up soon, according to the City. Improvements include changes to the greenway crossing, greater separation between walking and cycling paths, sidewalk repairs and a new seating area. Local businesses have served customers throughout the disruption and appreciate your continued support. There are several business updates to share. Five Elements Boutique has opened at 5765 West Boulevard. Bento Cafe and Lagree Studio are preparing to open, while Advantage Vacuums, Caposhie, Myst Asian Bistro, and Vegan Shoku have closed. Monaliza’s Fine Lingerie is temporarily closed for renovations. A special farewell goes to Isola Bella Kids, which is closing after 44 years in business. For generations of families, the store has been part of shopping for children and celebrating milestones. Thank you to its owner and team for their many years serving the Kerrisdale community. Looking ahead, February 6 marks Chinese New Year and the beginning of the Year of the Goat. As this issue carries us into 2027, we wish our readers, advertisers and neighbours a happy holiday season and a healthy New Year.

CURRANS LINGERIE
Beautiful Lingerie in the Heart of Kerrisdale Story by Sarah Gordon | Photos by Sandra Steier & Carolynne Palla It seems fitting that Currans Lingerie is housed in an elegant building that emits a European feel with its mansard roof, dormer windows and petite balconies. Inside, the store is filled with beautiful lingerie from Europe and Canada, creating a shopping experience that feels as charming as Kerrisdale itself. Currans dates back to 1964 when Jenny Currans, the original owner, established the business across the street where the Royal Bank now stands. She operated the lingerie shop and eventually sold it to her niece Cecile Bartussek in 1990. During her ownership she shifted the business across the street to its current location. In 2000, Maria Bastone joined Currans as an employee and in 2012 she was thrilled to purchase the shop. Today, Maria’s daughter Michelle Bastone and Maria’s sister Rita Out all lend their talents to the business, making Currans a true family affair. 6
“Kerrisdale is a charming neighbourhood and to be able to provide beautiful garments to the community I grew up in is so rewarding,” Maria says. It is an enduring business that has grown with the community and earned lasting customer loyalty.
Generations of customers have walked through the door, from teens getting their first bra fitting to seniors. The shop offers a welcoming and unpretentious environment that can’t be replicated from a big box shopping experience or online shopping. However, if you can’t make it to Kerrisdale, Currans offers numerous bras from its collections that can be ordered through its website.
with European and Canadian brands offering a wide range of styles, fits and functions. With so many options to choose from, customers can find something that suits not only their size but also their personality and lifestyle.
The team loves hearing customers tell them how much they love the store, and receiving referrals to come check it out is one of the best compliments they can receive. Currans is recognized for its friendly and knowledgeable service, expert bra-fitting services and a vast range of sizes, all the way to a J cup. The search for the perfect fit can end at Currans. “We pride ourselves on being sensitive to all of our customer’s needs, with a large selection of fine lingerie at our disposal,” Michelle says. An array of beautiful bras lines both walls,
Some of the shop’s top sellers include Wacoal, a company known for designing exceptional lingerie that combines great fit and function with beautiful design. Chantelle is a world leader in French lingerie with over 140 years of expertise in creating elegant apparel. German company Anita makes comfortable everyday bras, gorgeous lace lingerie and highly functional sports bras. Belgian company Marie Jo makes flirty and fun bras with adorable shoulder straps, think daisies and circles. Another Belgian company, Primadonna, is known for its luxury bras that provide comfort and support, especially for fuller busts.
Lingerie is only part of what Currans has to offer.

It is also a popular item that clients pick up as a gift for their partners. In addition to underwear, Curran carries SAXX’s Sleepwalker pajama pants. “It’s our passion to create an environment where people feel comfortable. Clients love the idea of supporting a family business. I am so grateful that we have created a place where women have not only become repeat customers, but also friends,” Maria says.
“We love seeing people leave the store happy.” The Currans team always looks forward to selecting and displaying Christmas merchandise. You will 8

BLARA ORGANIC HOUSE: Sustainable Baby and Kids’ Clothing Story by Sarah Gordon | Photos by Carolynne Palla Walk into Blara Organic House in Kerrisdale and you’ll find clothing for babies and young children made from soft fabrics in neutral colours. The company began when founder Ann (Juyu) An’s second child developed severe eczema. Concerned about what was touching his skin every day, she wanted to find a fabric
that was gentle, breathable and free from harsh chemicals. That search eventually led her to establish Blara Organic House in 2017.
“I love families and I want to share my love of our healthy products with them,” Ann says. The company’s philosophy guides everything from its choice of fabrics to the way its clothing is dyed. Its collection focuses primarily on babies and toddlers, with clothing available for children up to age 10. More than half of the collection is babywear. The store was originally located in Oakridge Mall before it moved to Kerrisdale in 2020. It is the company’s only Vancouver store, although Blara Organic House also operates several stores in China, hosts pop-ups at Holt Renfrew and has collections available at retailers in Chilliwack, Nanaimo, Seattle and White Rock.
12
Ann is at the Kerrisdale store every day, overseeing operations and travelling between Kerrisdale and Holt Renfrew. Out front, her staff look after the store, while the back office is a beehive of activity, with the social media, e-commerce and development teams working together. At the heart of the collection is organic cotton. Blara Organic House’s cotton is GOTS-certified, meaning the Global Organic Textile Standard independently verifies the organic materials and the production process. The company also uses linen and TENCEL Modal, a fabric made from beech wood.
“Organic fabric is good for sensitive skin. It’s like a second layer of skin.” Close attention is also paid to colour. Herbs, plants and fruits, along with traditional Chinese methods, are used to dye fabrics without harmful chemicals. The company’s environmentally responsible dyeing method is designed to protect water resources, with leftover water clean enough for irrigation. “Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. As an environmentally conscious fashion brand, our mission is to create products that are not only gentle on your child’s skin but also kind to the planet that we all share.” “Our commitment goes beyond what we make; it is also about how we give back to the community. For every new order, we plant a tree, contributing to global reforestation efforts and helping restore ecosystems for future generations. It’s a small act with a lasting impact, rooted in our belief that nurturing the planet is part of nurturing our children.”
the baby bundle boxes as gifts for newborns. The sets are ideal for baby showers, hospital visits or welcoming a new baby into the family. Years after her own son’s eczema helped inspire the business, Ann met another family at a Holt Renfrew pop-up whose child also had eczema. The encounter reminded her why she started the company: to find gentler clothing for a child with sensitive skin. “We believe every child deserves the gentlest start in life, wrapped in care, comfort and a commitment to a better world,” Ann says. She adds, “Our clients are Blara family members.” From a seed of an idea that took root when Ann was looking for something better for her own child, Blara Organic House has grown into a business focused on healthy clothing for children and families in Kerrisdale and beyond.

With the holiday season approaching, the store carries matching pyjamas for the whole family, along with adult-sized organic cotton robes. The baby holiday bundle includes an adorable reindeer-print onesie with a matching hat, mitts and blanket. Baby clothes and rompers are among the store’s top sellers, and Ann recommends 13
