Anne's On The Avenue
Anne’s on the Avenue has been proudly selling international and Canadian-made fashions since 1989 and today, almost 30 years later, it continues to be one of the finest fashion boutiques in Windsor-Essex county. Owner Anne Waters has a knack for picking out pieces that are timeless and classic, but she also knows how to integrate those classics with items that are cutting-edge. That’s because she understands her clients and what they want. So who are the Canadian designers and the manufacturers that keep customers coming back? Frank Lyman Design, Cartise, Luc Fontaine Shannon Passero, Pure Essence, Lisette L, Rafinalla, FDJ French Dressing Denim…the list is long and it keeps growing every year. Anne also has an extensive collection of ladies fashion accessories including handbags, earrings, belts, necklaces, bracelets and scarves. Anne’s on the Avenue can dress you for every occasion, from a casual game of golf to the next big gala.
How We Got Here
Anne Waters opened Anne’s on the Avenue Fashion Boutique on Sept. 1, 1989 in a charming old brick house on Ouellette Ave. But she was involved in fashion long before that. She first created a home party company called Your Home Boutique, bringing clothes to her clients from 1985 to 1989. In 1986 Anne founded La Moda Ladies Fashions and continued to operate it until the time was right to re-brand under her own name. In 1994 she took the plunge and relocated Anne’s to Manning Road in Tecumseh. A downturn in the economy in 2008 didn’t faze her. In fact, she decided the time was right to expand her operation by another 3,000 square feet, allowing her to expand her designer inventory and bring in more fashion accessories. Anne’s is currently located in the upscale East Point Trails Plaza at 1695 Manning Road in Tecumseh.
