Owner Louise Cooper knows her stuff: as a student, she studied fashion history; before opening her shop, she spent five years scouring antique shows and estate sales for high-end vintage pieces by the likes of Chanel, Pucci and Balenciaga. Her finds are mostly ’50s and ’60s gems, with some pieces from the ’20s to ’40s, and high-end present-day items thrown in—all in impeccable condition. For special occasions, pick up a Chanel bouclé 1960s suit in cream and mint green or an angelic ’70s silk chiffon Valentino mini-dress with a sexy corseted waist.
