Stella McCartney

McCartney excels at creating cleverly tailored garments with a modern look and feel. The devoted vegetarian never uses any animal fibers or leather in her clothing or bags.

Ten Thousand Things

Open a nondescript door off the Meatpacking District's main drag and a narrow passageway empties into a cavernous and serene expanse of a store, awash with pieces of driftwood and slate gray brick floors. Besides Ten Thousand Things' own achingly gorgeous collection of delicately strung necklaces, the store carries jewelry by designers like Annette Ferdinandsen and Cara Croninger. 423 W. 14th St. MEATPACKING DISTRICT 212?352-1333

Theory

Clothing by Theory is always reliably subtle, streamlined, and easy to wear. No matter what the season, it turns out the best-fitting basics—you can't go wrong with its tailored trousers, blouses, and luxe, roomy bags.

Zachary's Smile

They're an excellent resource for reworked vintage clothing—the house line of dresses crafted from printed antique silk is wildly popular.

Zero Maria Cornejo

Now two locations strong—including a gigantic store on Bleecker—Zero + Maria Cornejo continues to turn out strongly cut, highly conceptual tulip-shaped dresses and cropped jackets. It's rare that the Chilean-born designer ever uses a print or pattern, focusing instead on intensive draping, which means that while many items look confusing on the hanger, they're extraordinarily cool to wear. 33 Bleecker St. NOHO 212-925-3849; 807 Greenwich St. WEST VILLAGE 212-620-0460, zeromariacornejo.com for more information
