West Coast denim boutique brings cutting-edge brands — and a vintage union chain-stitching machine — to the Lower East Side.
Festive frocks, vintage pieces, and indie designers (especially young Latino newcomers) showcased in a modern-styled boutique.
Well-priced dresses, tops, and shoes from indie designers (locals, represent!) in a closet-size shop on the LES. Major props for the easy online boutique, too.
Boutique concept inspired by country club lifestyle of yesteryear. Modernized, uplifted, and artfully laid out. The online shop is a favorite, but stop by the showroom if you prefer to try things on before purchasing.
Enter the sidewalk hatch to a basement shop channeling London (or Paris!) in the ’60s. Clothing for men and women is styled near jazz records, apothecary potions, horn-rimmed glasses, and a vintage bathtub. Co-designers Osore Oyagha and Eloise Simonet manufacture their wardrobe in NYC in limited runs.

Hey, four-eyes, need some new lenses? Head to the LES shop that’s been family operated since 1915. Choose from Moscot Originals, reproductions of specs from the ’30s through the ’70s (think thick, black-rimmed styles), or Moscot Spirit, vintage inspired with modern touches.
Originally a rental showroom, the LES store now offers women’s designer clothing, accessories, and shoes from the ’60s to the ’80s. Browse big names (YSL, Dior, Chanel, Valentino) — perhaps even alongside a few (Rachel Weisz, Beyonce, Lucy Liu).
