• Keep your Bia Brazil garments looking their best.
• Do not expose any garment to the sun for long periods of time, for example on a storefront window, as sumndamage may occur.
• If an item turns out damaged after being used once (open seams, rhinestone/grommet comes off, discoloration), it may be a factory defect in which case we will accept it back. We will not accept items that have not complied with our washing instructions found below.
• Before returning any item that you may consider a factory defect, please check it thoroughly, especially discolored items, as discoloration may have been the main cause of not following the care instructions.

For our high end apparel I would like to showcase on of my favorite lines, Margarita Wear.  This brand originates from Israel and is one of the most comfortable and stylish pieces you could ever own.  Their bright colours and funky designs are sure to keep your look original when in the gym.  The good thing is you don't have to go all the way to Israel to get these peices.  One Hot Tamale, a fitness clothing store in midtown Toronto, carries many out of country brands bringing you the most diverse looking gear then yo ucould ever find in our Canadian stores.

Free Parking in rear.



High End

Margarita Wear's logo is always a flower.  On the pants, it is located on the bum.  Their pants have stretch to them so don't be discouraged when you see how small the waist looks.  You will be sure to get a lot of compliments when wearing these.  (Polka Dot Pant; $105.00)

As you notice again, the logo is on the back of the tops.  Ther e are many styles of tops to choose from but I particularly like this one becuase of it's unique colour contrast.  Plus, it makes a great set with the pants.  (Criss Cross Tank; $60.00)









For our low end apparel, I find the line from Joe Fresh adorable.  Joe Fresh apparel can be found in any Loblaws.  Unfortuantely, they do not have any photos posted on their site for me to use so you'll just have to take my word for it and drop in one day.
