Product Insights
The Julien Open Bangle Bracelet by Midi34 is a $55 CAD Quebec-designed and assembled piece, available for in-store try-on at the Laurier Québec boutique. The brand, named after founder Jessie Bourgault's birth time following her mother's death, gained fashion recognition at Milan Fashion Week 2024 with coverage in Harper's Bazaar and Elle. The bangle features a slide-on technique that requires setting the gap only once to avoid metal fatigue. It offers a choice between a self-healing silver finish that resists rust and a gold-plated finish that lasts months to years with care; both cost the same, but the gold finish wears with use while the silver finish is indefinitely durable. The core promise is local craftsmanship and fashion credibility, with the main tradeoff being the need for careful single adjustment and the gold finish's limited longevity.
