I find it funny how the people on here are complaining about how the staff is over baring and will stalk you around the store till you buy something.

I used to work here. And yeah, that's pretty much how they trained us. Not to mention we had crazy monthly goals that if the new staff didn't make, they would get fired right away. I was one of the few people that felt it was to much and ended up... more

I love their clothing here. I got a great vintage dress here right before I moved to Australia. The staff are really nice but a bit pushy for me, I am a lone wolf shopper and can handle making my clothing decisions on my own. It can be a bit over whelming in there sometimes. Still the selection is great so it is worth a stop in!

I've been to Divine many times for piercings, I've gotten my eyebrow,tongue and recently tragus done there, shop is always clean and tidy, and it's in a room so there is privacy + my piercings always turn out a success.

Recently got my tragus done, Brandy (the piercer) was very fast, hurt but hardly, I recommend goin there for your piercings.

Oh Divine. Once upon a time I got my first piercing in your sister store in Edmonton. That happened to be an eyebrow ring. I've walked by your Calgary store many times and I've often wondered how alike you and your sister are. You've got the underground store thing in common, and the location on 17th Ave vs. Whyte Ave also in common. But what else?

I ventured in while looking for vintage... more

though i don't think DIVINE is the place to shop for everyone.. imo it's one of the best vintage shops in calgary for the younger market.

also, super huge variety for all those trendy kids - you'll be in heaven. piercing, stretchers, bathing suits, shoes, purses, f@!%!n everything and MOST of it is vintage, with only one of... more

Divine has always been the place to shop for whatever subculture happens to be rising in popularity. It was punk and grunge in the early nineties, then it sold rave gear when it was the height of popularity and now it sells hipster/scenester wear (though that is fast going out of style and I am too old to know what is next), They have a decent selection of new clothing and of vintage and they... more

Divine Clothing is my favourite vintage buying therapy. If I am feeling blue you can usually find me in the men's blazer and suit section. If I am feeling frisky, you will find me in the vintage leather jacket section. If I am feeling naughty I will look at the piercing paraphernalia. And if I want a distraction from problems in life you will see me in the changing room. It's my moonstone that... more

Vintage Clothing. Costumes. Piercing. It's a strange combination, but it seems to work for Divine. They have a large selection of old school clothes, new trends, crazy get-ups, plenty of Converse All-Star shoes, and a couple of body piercers on hand. The piercings are all professionally done and in a safe, sanitary manner.

The people that work at Divine, as well as those who usually frequent... more

Divine has been a landmark for punk rockers, moon stompers, and just about every suburban kid looking for a taste of vintage wear. Sure, they don't have great stuff every time and they don't carry the crazy stuff they used to, but I remember getting excellent service here when I was 15. They're just as killer now, just a little more relaxed and more modern, and having expanded their operations... more

New brand name clothing, vintage threads, hats, shoes, piercings and tattoos all under one roof. It's worth a look when in the neighborhood and looking for a new getup just don't expect to find something every time. The selection of vintage clothing has suffered in recent years so that they could increase their new clothing and bring in the piercing and tattoos and it has, in my opinion,... more

Divine is a popular store where you will find urban chic, unreal shoes and vintage clothing. Divine has an awesome selection of gear including jewelry and cool sunglasses. There is a range in price from the groovy pre-owned items to the latest, up-to-date styles in street wear. They also do body piercing at great prices, and you don't need to make an appointment.
