I quite adore this kicky little e-tailer. Though I shouldn't say little. Net-a-porter has become a force in the world of fashion etail, mostly because you can buy practically anything designer-y, anywhere in the world. How about that. Anywhere. In. The. World.
This is a big stretch from the days where nothing could be shipped to Canada...which is still a fact of many American retailers. Just try buying something online from:
Nordstrom.com
Saksfifthavenue.com
Barneys.com
Bananarepublic.com
eLuxury.com
Target.com
I could go on and on and bore the living shite out of you with all the places that do not ship to Canada, even though we are on the border and in many cases, closer than Hillbilly USA that can get a shipment overnight for shipping prices that start usually at either FREE or $7.95. But I won't do that.
Instead, a reckoning of who does it right, etail-wise
Jcrew.com
Bluefly.com
Even our Canadian high-fashion institution Holt Renfrew doesn't do e-tail across Canada. Shame!
