About Dynamite

Dynamite is a women's fashion label from Groupe Dynamite, a Quebec company founded in 1984 and based in Mont-Royal. It is known for workwear, dresses and polished basics: tailored pants, blazers, knits and pieces that move from the office to dinner. It is a familiar name in Canadian malls.

Dynamite suits women building a work wardrobe or looking for an outfit for an event. It is a handy stop before a job interview, a wedding season or a return to the office. Many shoppers mix its basics with pieces from smaller local designers. The brand grew from Montreal's long garment and fashion tradition.
