Where to shop in New York

One of the best cities in the world for a dose of retail therapy, the New York fashion scene is constantly evolving. Outdoor malls and shopping centres, New York markets and boutiques are spread throughout the city; head to trendy spots such as Soho or the Lower East Side if you want something edgy, or visit 5th Avenue for luxury boutiques and designer gear. If department stores are more your style, try Midtown for a little bit of everything.

Soho

Retaining some of its artsy charm, Soho is home to a number of cult brands in fashion, as well as international names. Some designer stores and little-known brands can also be found here, selling everything from fashion to homewares. Wander along Broadway for chain-store fashion or Lafayette Street for tailored pieces and fashion staples.

Designer Diane von Furstenberg has a huge presence here, as well as other high-end labels such as Chanel and Alexander Wang. You'll also find international brands housed in boutique-style stores. This is the district to browse if you're in the market for an edgy new label or unique pieces.

Greenwich Village

A mixture of well-known retailers and one-of-a-kind stores, no New York shopping guide is complete without a mention of Greenwich Village. Bleecker Street is the pick for clothes shopping, but you can also find record stores and specialty book shops as well. Refuel with a visit to one of the cafes before you continue to explore off the main streets.
