This residential hideaway is home to the hautest designer labels in the Oud Zuid hood. Fashion junkies frequently flock here for the well-edited mix of mutli-label lines including Acne and Ernest Sewn (butt-firming blues), Marc Jacobs (feminine blazers and skirts), Temperly London and Michael Stars (casual T’s). Be on the lookout for limited-edition items made exclusively for the shop like the jaw-dropping Dutch jewelry. Bottom line: if you see something you like, don’t dare think twice about buying it.

Footwear fanatics rejoice! This homey hideaway stocks a show-stopping selection of luxe European labels that won’t cost an arm and a leg. Rummage through rustic shelves that are meticulously lined with the latest seasonal stunners from Chie Mihara, Cristina Castaner, N.A.C., Costume National and more. Too pooped to power shop? Pop a squat on the plush red velvet couch or kick back in the cozy courtyard while sipping a savory cappuccino.

This contemporary clothing chain carries ready-to-wear items you’ll instantly want in your wardrobe. A cross between H&M and Club Monaco with an industrial twist (think submarine-style glass windows filled with salt water fish and vintage metal vaults stationed by the cash), expect pieces that are pretty, polished and practical for day and night. Some standouts to stock up on: print wrap dresses, knee-length shorts, blouses with bows and faux fur coats. With a limited number of sizes in stock, you’d better grab the goods you’re after.
