In general, clothes at Talbots skews a slightly more mature age group rather than women in their 20s or even 30s, but a few pieces did catch my eye, walking past the Bloor Street store in Toronto the other day. And they weren't bad, at least not through the window. Of course, they could end up not being that great when one tries it on. The ones I like include:
Stretch bedford cord shirtdress
Matte jersey cap-sleeve dress
Mesh-lined parka
Paint-printed pleated skirt (may be a little big for really tiny petites. I tried on a similar-shaped skirt last year at a 2P and it was HUGE)
Pants, jackets and sweaters were nothing too special, however.
