For some, New York is known as a shopping city. Finding your clothing store in a city full of them can feel like a kind of personal revelation. You may recognize a part of yourself you hadn’t thought of for years as you peruse the boutique’s thoughtfully curated racks and shelves. Or, perhaps the staff may guide you toward a dress or a jacket that you had never considered.
To spotlight the destinations in New York City that are the most gratifying and surprising places to shop for clothes, The New York Times Styles desk has compiled a list of the 25 best stores in the city, all of which were visited by reporters (sometimes more than once).
Now we would like to hear from you. Tell us about that boutique that makes you want to buy everything in the store, or the hole-in-the-wall shop jam-packed with vintage finds.
