TORONTO, Aug. 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - The Peacock Parade is proud to announce that it has officially launched.  Canadians now have access to the Toronto-based, members-only flash sale Web site, which features coveted merchandise at up to 70 per cent off retail prices.  Each time-limited sale includes a curated collection of designer merchandise. Membership is free and registration is now open at www.thepeacockparade.com.

ABOUT THE PEACOCK PARADE

As Canada's premier flash sale site, The Peacock Parade enables members to conveniently shop from anywhere they have access to the Internet.  Each sales event begins at 11:00 am EST, and lasts for a limited time period.  Quantities are limited so when an item sells out, members may never see it again - other than on an enviable friend.

The Peacock Parade is the brainchild of Canadians, Jan Gandhi and Nancy Sahota.  The pair met in 2007 while living and working for several years in New York City—Jan as a lawyer for MTV Networks and Nancy as a senior strategist for a marketing agency.

"While living in New York, Nancy and I had ample access to e-commerce sites that provide designer merchandise at affordable prices - but we realized that the majority of them do not ship to Canada.  With a desire to provide Canadians with the same access and value, Nancy and I moved back to Toronto to create The Peacock Parade" said Jan Gandhi, of her and her co-founder, Nancy Sahota's, decision to launch the flash sale site.

The two friends-turned-business partners identified an opportunity in the Canadian market, and returned home to create The Peacock Parade.

"Canadian women have amazing style and great taste, but are often limited by where they can find the brands they want," said Nancy Sahota. "We're giving them an accessible way to find clothes and accessories they want at affordable prices without leaving the country."

The Peacock Parade's carefully selected merchandise is intended to impress even the most discerning shopper.   Designer goods available for purchase on the Web site include shoes, accessories and apparel from, among others:

The Peacock Parade is also curating an incredible selection of merchandise from globally-recognized and celebrated Canadian designers, such as Greta Constantine.  Members are also among the fortunate few to sample designer pieces created exclusively for The Peacock Parade, by renowned Canadian designer brands such as Jenny Bird, Biko Jewellery, C'est Jol! and Claudia Accessories.  In addition to designer apparel and accessories, members have access to original fashion content, including style tips and designer profiles.
