A beloved gem in downtown Belleville, Ontario.
Opening its doors in June 2003, Boretski Gallery has grown into more than just a shop over the years. It is now also a styling and restoring service for productions, events and fashionable parties. From a variety of casual, evening and formal wear for men and women, we also have a penchant to mix and match vintage and modern wear.
The store is a full experience to enjoy rather than a chore of shopping – indulge in early periods of Victorian and turn of the century fashions, right up through the decades to the 1970’s. These luxury items not only provide history, but, with care and curating, outlive many types of modern clothing as well.
