The Garment Room





I trust my friend Dez, implicitly when it comes to suggestions for new and upcoming places to check out. So when he told me we were going to visit his friends at the Garment Room, I wasn't surprised at how instantly I fell in love. Not just with the hand-selected vintage pieces, but with the owner, Tiffany, who receives every customer with the warmth and sincerity of what I would expect from a small business in the Midwest. However, when I was informed that she originally hailed from Chicago, it all made perfect sense. I left with a flirty, long-sleeved brocade dress, and a tan Alexander Wang S/S 0'10-ish leather jacket that is so lovely I've named her Cynthia. You can find the Garment Room at 112 Greene Street, lower level (between Spring and Prince Street).
Ashley Scott will be featuring her Drapes in an upcoming trunk show May 9th, so come out and rep!
