Paige DeSorbo, Carol Lim and Other Fashion Tastemakers Share Where They Love to Shop
"A plethora of secondhand designer merchandise to choose from. All the items dresses, suits, blouses, shirts, ties, clutches, shoes are in top-notch condition. Plenty are unique or hard to find. Whether you are buying or simply browsing, the staff are most civilized. They keep their distance and remain friendly. An airy shop (and one of three in Manhattan), it is well lit not too bright, not too dim, just smooth and easy on the eye."
"Natty Adams's custom and ready-to-wear clothes are as natty as his first name (no pun intended). A New Yorker, he has set up shop in the heart of New Orleans's French Quarter, a stone's throw from the former residence of the playwright Tennessee Williams. Graced with a courtyard and a flowering garden, his shop has the best qualities of Paul Smith, Paul Stuart and Ralph Lauren with a youthful vigor all his own."
"Mostly dressed in black, they look like glamorous characters in an Italian movie. It's very aspirational: If you just spent enough money, you too could be an artistic interesting person with a bohemian life.The Los Angeles store (one of a few worldwide) is huge! You could get lost in it for days. Fortunately, I have a capable salesperson, Nathaniel, who looks like a stylish vampire and glides elegantly through the maze of fashion, always emerging with something surprising and unexpected for me to try on."
Ina in Manhattan’s Chelsea offers a wide selection of secondhand designer garments — dresses, suits, blouses, shirts, ties, clutches, and shoes — all in top-notch condition. The shop carries many unique and hard-to-find pieces. Staff remain polite and unobtrusive. The airy, well-lit space is easy on the eye. Natty Adams in New Orleans sells custom and ready-to-wear menswear from a French Quarter shop with a courtyard and flowering garden, blending Paul Smith, Paul Stuart and Ralph Lauren influences with youthful vigor. Crowley Vintage in Brooklyn supplies vintage menswear focused on perfect fit and enduring quality. Dover Street Market Los Angeles offers a vast, aspirational shopping environment with stylish clientele and attentive salespeople.
