Recommended clothing brands/clothing stores in Chile - from women's to unisex.

Hello everyone!

Here are my recommendations for clothing brands in the Chilean capital, Santiago, and the beautiful port city of Valparaiso.

There is also an online store, so if you live far away, please refer to it. My preference is for ethnic and distinct designs, and I want something as inexpensive as possible but with fabrics that are not cheap. So, I may be a little biased to introduce from that side...

Tricot

Tricot is a popular clothing brand with many stores in Santiago and Valparaiso. The brand offers a wide variety of trendy items at affordable prices, making it popular among fashion-conscious young people and adults of all ages. New collections are released every season, so you can always find something new. The online store is also well-stocked, making it easy to purchase items from home.

Tikva

Tikva is a brand especially recommended for women who like ethnic clothing. It is characterized by bright colors and unique patterns, and is perfect for those who enjoy unique fashion. It has an extensive online store as well as stores, so even those who live far away can buy from the brand. A must-see for those who want to enjoy an ethnic atmosphere and incorporate Chilean-style fashion.

As for this one, it might be better to look at the installations for more information.

CamLu

CamLu is a brand characterized by simple and elegant designs. The store is located in an upscale shopping area in Santiago, and its high-quality fabrics and careful tailoring are appealing. The brand offers a wide range of items that can be used in a wide variety of situations, from business to casual daily life, and is recommended for those seeking clothes that can be worn for a long time.

Really cute in general! in a good way, so if you are wondering where to buy something anyway, you might want to check this one first.

However, since it is mainly women's clothing, it is not likely to be helpful for men.

Corona

Corona is a major fast fashion brand that operates throughout Chile. It offers a wide variety of trend-conscious designs at very reasonable prices. The lineup ranges from casual wear for daily use to items for when you want to be a little more stylish. There are many stores in Santiago and Valparaiso, and an online store is also available.

Extras: Second-hand shop

Perhaps surprisingly, Chilean vintage clothing stores also offer many great bargains. The vintage clothing stores in Valparaiso, in particular, offer a wide variety of unique and distinctive items. They have fitting rooms, so you can try on the clothes before you buy them. A visit to a recycle store or flea market may turn up unexpected treasures.

What to look for when buying clothes in Chile

When purchasing clothing in Chile, please note the following

  1. Fabric Quality: In Chile, you will find many clothes made of flimsy, cheap fabrics. We recommend that you actually check the fabric in the store before purchasing rather than buying online.
  2. one's size (as opposed to one's size in general)Size: Chilean sizes may differ from those in Japan. It is important to try on the garments to make sure they are the right size for you.
  3. Price: Prices may vary from store to store, even for the same design of clothing. It is wise to visit several stores and compare prices before making a purchase.
  4. Changing Trends: Chilean fashion trends can change from season to season. Check the trends and choose items that suit your style.

But actually, this La Polar, despite being a fairly well-known fashion store, has been accused of selling copies of products from well-known brands (such as Underarmor)... (as of 2023).
