Diane Allison-Frost - Zuri fashions

Zuri fashions, Oakville’s newest premier ladies boutique located in the heart of Downtown Oakville, specializes in creating a unique customer service experience. Owner and Oakville resident Diane Allison-Frost has worked many years in Downtown Oakville, catering to discerning clientele. Recently she decided to take her vision to the next level by opening her own boutique:

‘My vision is to bring back the art of Customer Service and the personalized shopping experience to women’s retail which has been trending away from the industry for the last while with the rise of the Big Box experience, while still maintaining affordability’ Says Diane.
‘As an example, many of us use Interior Designers to help us decorate our homes. While we know basically what we like, sometimes we need a hand from a professional to help find us the items that best suit us and our space, or to point us in new directions that we hadn’t thought of before. The same is true of Fashion. Often we need that bit of extra help pulling together the proper pieces that best suit us, or to find us something completely new and exciting. ‘

‘At Zuri Fashions, this is what we strive to do, to bring out the best in you, on an individual basis, all in a warm, friendly and welcoming environment. I feel this art has been lost among most of the larger retailers today.’

‘Our current space at 103 Reynolds came up unexpectedly for lease in the spring of 2011. I had to make a decision quickly whether or not to grab the space. Would I be able to renovate the space in time for the fall? Would I be able to find enough inventory in time? I was already late for ordering for the 2011 Fall Season and I hadn’t even secured the space yet! Anyway, it all worked out with a whirlwind of Interior Design, renovation and buying trips to bring in the fall fashions! Many thanks to our neighbors for enduring the extensive renovations that was required for the location!’

Diane has taken great care in selecting the finest in fashion lines available today, including Gerry Weber, Faber, Nueva, Luna Luz, Vanillia, Nuovi Sarti, Linea Domani, Gelco, Lebek, Zanetti, Choices, Cartise & Accessories by J. Jensen Designs and 2 Beading Hearts Jewellery.
With a firm belief that each woman is beautiful inside and out, Diane strives to help her clients find the best fit of clothing and accessories tailored specifically to them. The name and the philosophy are fitting. The word Zuri is of Swahili origin meaning Beautiful. Come visit Zuri fashions and discover the beautiful in you.

‘The response from the community so far has been great! I’ve had such fun meeting new clients and reacquainting myself with many of my prior clients who shopped at this location before it became Zuri fashions. I look forward to many years of servicing Oakville’s fashion needs!’
