TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - April 11, 2013) - Mexx celebrates today its recently re-appointed presence at Yorkdale Shopping Centre, one of Canada's leading shopping destinations. The company is also celebrating the success of its new spring/summer collections for men's, women's, and children's wear, which is enjoying strong reviews.

"Spring is the perfect time to take a fresh new look at Mexx," said John Gunn, president of Mexx Canada. "We've embarked on a national re-design program that will improve the in-store experience for our customers and have recently launched a fresh and extensive new Canadian online store. More importantly, our global designers have embarked on a mission to inspire confidence, new possibilities and fun through our latest collections. Customers will see that they've hit their mark."

Shoppers who participate in the official re-opening celebration, today from 5 to 9 pm, benefit from a very personal introduction to the Spring 2013 collection, as well as professional styling advice from Alexis Honce, treats, drinks, and a rockin' DJ.

Located at Yorkdale Shopping Centre, the newly renovated Mexx features an amalgamated children's section, new fixtures and a re-designed floor plan. The store is one of 38 for Mexx in Ontario, and employs 38 people on a full- and part-time basis. It is estimated the store welcomes more than 500,000 customers per year.

"In total, we launch no less than 12 collections per year, allowing our customers access to up-to-the-minute fashion trends inspiring, and inspired by, the world's greatest cities," said Julia Hansen, chief creative officer for Mexx at the brand's global offices in Amsterdam. "And for those cold Canadian days, Mexx.ca is there to satisfy all your fashion needs."

The store features new spring/summer collections in the Casual and Metropolitan series.
