The boutique is tucked away on Mott Street in a former speak-easy that still boasts a secret door (!) (the only thing better than a dumb waiter is a secret door) and the original façade. Once inside, you’ll see a custom made armoire, a floating tufted poof and a brass vanity, all adding to the dream closet vibe of the store.
