VIBE

There’s a charmingly retro Parisian feel at this cute boutique that’s known for outfitting the cool kid set in fashionably feminine designer wear. The hip customers lounge on soft blue banquettes and whimsical pouffes as they eye the racks of angora sweaters, silk dresses, and frothy blouses, while savvy staff click around on the slick black and white tile floors offering ever-so fashion-forward advice. Featured labels include Phillip Lim, Alexander Wang, and rag & bone.

A feminine casual look; a classy night out

WHY WE LIKE IT

The collection is cute and well edited–perfect when we’re on the hunt for a hip, girly look. And the girls who work there, despite looking model-worthy, are very down-to-earth and super eager to find you that perfect addition to your wardrobe.

GOOD TO KNOW

Pas de Deux is the sister chain of trendy menswear shop Odin New York (located next door). For language-lovers or the just plain curious, “Pas de Deux” is French for “a dance for two, especially in ballet,” clearly a nod to the store’s delicate, feminine, and beautifully elegant pieces (especially the jewelry).
