Antik Batik

When former Crazy Horse dancer Gabrielle Cortese opened the first of her Antik Batik stores 16 years ago, she was one of the earliest designers to work exotic, beachy fabrics and embellishments into citified shapes. The sequin-trimmed tunics call to mind the most idyllic vacation ever, but there are silk tie-neck blouses and slouchy trousers for work, too. Biggest location:
18 rue de Turenne, 33-1-4478-0200, antikbatik.fr
