New York Shopping Guide

Dumbo/Fort Greene/Park Slope

9

Odd Twin Trading Co.

This Park Slope newcomer has a retro sensibility, as evidenced by the snap-button blouses and perfectly worn-in leather jackets. 164 Fifth Ave. PARK SLOPE 718-633-8946

Thistle & Clover

Though Rand Niederhoffer and Camilla Gale only graduated from college in 2005, their first retail adventure already has a standout reputation. Every piece feels special and handmade, since the twosome focus on affordable, under-represented lines like Dace and Wren. They even host a quarterly open call in search of the next big thing, where they look at labels that have yet to land their first store account. 221 DeKalb Ave. FORT GREENE 718?855-5577, thistleclover.com
Stuart & Wright

Stuart & Wright

Launched by two former employees of Steven Alan (see Nolita/SoHo/Tribeca map), this warm, welcoming spot offers a masterful edit of quietly elegant pieces, from Rachel Comey to Vena Cava
85 Lafayette Ave. (between S. Portland Ave and S. Elliott Pl.), 718-797-0011, stuartandwright.com

Zoe

Zoë

The original Zoë, in Princeton, New Jersey, takes up an entire city block, and Dumbo's Zoë is just as ambitious in scope. In keeping with the feel of the neighborhood, it occupies an all-gray, industrial-toned loft; and in keeping with its position as a mini department store, each label gets its own portion of rack, whether it's Gary Graham, Lanvin, or Helmut Lang. 68 Washington St. DUMBO 718-237-4002, shopzoeonline.com
