Fashionable Flagships
By: Jon Peters

One of the biggest advantages about being interested in fashion and living in a large city like NYC or London is that you have access to the world’s biggest and well-known brands. Most of the larger, globally known brands have a flagship store in a big city that has tons of traffic and caters to their demographic. For instance, English brands Burberry and Alexander McQueen both just recently opened flagship stores in London at Regent Street and Saville Row, respectively. I do love London, and these brands take pride in their Brit heritage, but there’s definitely no place like NYC. The shopping is on another level completely and anything you could ever want is on a 13-mile island (aka the center of the universe) and fashion mainstays and budding brands alike try to have at least one store in the city. Versace and Proenza Schouler both have new flagship stores in the big apple, with one in SoHo and the other on Madison Avenue. Being in Tampa has it’s benefits and disadvantages, and except for International Plaza, there really isn’t anything here like what London or NYC has to offer in terms of high-end shopping. So if you’re in either city, make sure you check out some awe-inspiring store interiors, and be sure to pick me up something on the way back!
