I had a deeply upsetting experience at this store where my friends and I, all visibly Muslim women, were falsely accused of stealing a scarf without any proof. We had just come from the store next door, where we legitimately purchased a shirt — even asking if it was from this store to be sure — and the owner of this store had actually been in that same shop at the time. As we entered his store, he suddenly closed the door on us and shouted, “Go away, you're thieves,” claiming we put a scarf in our bag. When we asked to see the footage, he refused and told us to leave, making a comment that we probably hid it under our “gown,” referring to our abayas in a way that felt Islamophobic and targeted.

All I'm saying is check the authenticity of what your buying, and don't call to inform him you been duped by him cause you'll just be asked not to come back.....very...
Read moreA vintage clothing store that actually has vintage clothing! I mean spearpoints, swing ties, wide lapels and dainty caps, not late 1990s tshirts that are somehow considered vintage now.
Stunning selection, and everything is labeled correctly. I spent almost a half hour just looking at all their ties, and another hour just going through the men's section.
Decent prices as well, they know what they have, but it's not online vintage resellers levels of inflated.
Highly recommend for someone trying to get true...
