TNT is an acronymn for “The New Trend,” and it is the [retail boutique](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/base-store) equivalent of Trend Hunter Magazine. TNT has locations in Toronto and Montreal and works “extremely close with their selected designers, attending the launch of their collections and for some, being their exclusive market in Toronto,” according to Toronto.com.

Expect labels like Pink Tartan, [Marc Jacobs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-city-tote), Comme des Garcons, Theory, Earnest Sewn, [James Perse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taste-club), and Juicy to be TNT mainstays. To keep up with the copious amount of innovative designer labels, you'd better have an equally large bank account to spoil yourself with the most up-to-date fashions and accessories. Hilary Duff, Mischa Barton, Sharon Stone, Kate Hudson, and Renee Zellweger have all been spotted purchasing from TNT.
