Blim

Incredible and creative shop full of one of a kind pieces. The owner is the most kind, genuine, and welcoming. The space fosters a place of inclusivity, creativity and most importantly safety. I am so happy that Blim has survived the COVID Storm and is still in operation. I always talk about this space with my friends, and I can’t wait to step foot there once again. Hopefully find another one of a kind big fur coat.:)

At first I was amazed by all the designs displayed there, then the front desk lady explained to me that there were few of a kind, made by local artists and some products were imported from Japan or inspired by Japan's street fashion movement: Harajuku, I almost cried. You really have to enter and see the high end quality and all varieties of goods. There is one rule: no photos inside. I think it is for a more immersive shopping.lol

Our favorite place we stopped. So many cool, locally made items. Shop owner was incredibly kind to us. We got a lot of things and will probably be back!

I wish I'd known about this shop when I was living in Vancouver. As soon as I walked in I was like "where have you been all my life! ". Total den for artists, fashion hounds and lovers of Harajuku/J-style clothes with loads of drip. Vintage and new stuff, also artist exclusive stuff too. The girl at the counter is awesome, but I only remember the first letter of her name (ごめんなさいね＾＿＾；) because I was way too excited talking fashion and looking in every color-filled corner. Dream closet stuff! I'll catch it again more carefully next time. Absolutely will return to shop when I'm back in town. Always stoked to love and support local shops! <3

Incredible store. Owner is one of a kind, magical personality with amazing taste for vintage and art alike. Always recommend this place to tourists, as well as friends.

Very cool store, full of very cool stuff.

I've been shopping here for several years now, and even took a class in silk screen printing - the staff are very nice, and there's always something new in store.

A joy to browse. Lots of wearable art, wearable pop culture and fun. I recommend getting their unique cards for your unique friends.

One of the best things that has happened to me in Vamcouver, meeting Blim. Yurico has the best creations. She does not one of the best things that has happened to me in Vamcouver, meeting Blim. Yurico has the best creations. She's wonderful, yes she amazing store

This is a beautiful store with beautiful things reasonably priced. The staff is very friendly and very helpful.

Really happy with my button maker rental Staff was suuuuuuper chill and helpful. Shout out to AJ for the button making tutorial!

Literally every single thing in this store is incredible. What an amazing little artist collective. There is so much to take in and it's very easy to see the amount of love and talent poured in to their beautiful work. It's blow-your-whole-paycheck level awesome!

I recently bought some clothes for my youngest son. Ordered them online and then picked them up. He loves them! He does however already have one of the items I got him so he will be popping by to see if he can exchange it. I hope that won't be a problem. When I get back into town, I'm going to stop by and say hello

The T-shirt looks great on him doesn't it? ️?

This shop is one of my favourites in Vancouver. Super unique selection and service is top notch! Lots of work from local artists, they even provide workshops on screen printing for those looking to print their artwork onto clothing. I’ll be signing up ASAP!

Absolutely lovely. I visited this store with my family and the workers where very nice and knowledgeable about the products they had. It was a fantastic experience, and there are so many really cool unique things to look at! Completely worth travelling downtown for.

Really cool business, really great way to support local artists. Everyone’s super friendly, awesome products. Highly recommend:)

The coolest shop, wonderful selection and amazing staff. Some of my best art and clothing pieces were found here. Extra love for their support of artists. Such a gem!

Amazing assortment of local and international designers. Great inclusivity, I never feel judged and the staff (owner especially) are always so encouraging and like having a personal cheer squad when you try something on.

One of the best places in Van to find one-of-a-kind pieces, and the owners and staff are so kind and enthusiastic about helping you find something you feel comfortable in!

Amazing store. Cool and helpful staff. Brilliant dedicated owner. Took a workshop here, loved it!

My favourite shop in Vancouver! Both me and my teenage stepdaughter love the shop, always our go to place for rad clothes.

Was recommended this store by the salesperson at a different Vancouver vintage/thrift store and it did not disappoint! The staff were so kind and lovely, and even searched through some items that weren’t on the floor to help me find the perfect Birthday outfit? The clothing is all amazing, well priced, clean and of good quality. Special focus on 80s neons, windbreakers, ski suits and kawaii. I will be back for sure!

Blim is well curated with one-of-a-kind pieces that have travelled near and far with my partner and me. Shopping there is always a wonderful experience; I was touched when owner Yuriko remembered my name on my second visit to her store. Vancouver is lucky to have a fun and welcoming place like this.

Great place to learn about screen printing, Get things printed or purchase a variety of brightly coloured goods

Amazing place to take classes! Highly recommend! They teach you the art of screen printing and it’s so fun

I took a 3 hour screenprinting course at Blim a few months ago. It was so fun, Y is so creative and the course helped me so much with my at home screen printing. Some awesome Tshirts available in store.

I live this place and the people who work there. Very inclusive, unique, eccentric, interesting. Repeat customer.
You'll find a one of a kind gift there for that special someone.

This shop always brings me joy! Such a bright and funky selection of unique clothes, hand printed pop culture treats and all kinds of art curios.a great mix of locally made fashion, accessories and imported one of a kinds.awesome people run this shop.a must visit multiple times over.

Blim has created me some amazing screens, without them I would not be able to produce the amazing clothes that I do! @idonthaveanamebrand thanks you blim for everything you do & for supporting artists like myself!

I absolutely love this store and studio. The workshops are highly recommended. Any services and products are of the highest quality. The staff and owner are such a delight to have help. They have such awesome merchandise and Silk screening equipment. My new favorite shirt is from here!

I've always felt extremely welcome at this store, I spent almost an hour talking to the owner one day I had time to spare (in between customers) and I will always support their decisions.

Sucks that some Karen's would rather feel important by leaving silly reviews then just ordering online

Blim carries amazingly unique and fun items. If you love cartoons, brightness, and/or prints, Blim is a go-to for you.

Best place to get shirts printed. They do great work for my favourite skate shop right across the street in Chinatown. Highly suggest you check them out

One of the most unique and amazing stores in the PNW.

Run by a really great person.

Support local!

One of my favorite stores in Vancouver. So much adorable stuff and screen printing in the back as well!

I had such a magical day here, the owner is a sweet authentic woman and helped me find all my new pieces for festivals! I spent hours in here doing a fashion show like shopping experience! Her and my partner were such a hype I found this gem 4 years ago when visiting Vancouver and made the 6hr trip up to buy from her again, was absolutely thrilled! Go check Blim out!

They're simply the best in town, love coming here for all my fun party and dance events, so excited to spend some cash here when everything opens up again!

My favorite place to but clothes. If you like cats, pop culture, Japanese fashion, retro vibes, or interesting textures or colors, you must check it out. Lots of awesome gifts from local craftspeople. Something for everyone.
