3.1 Phillip Lim

Profile

Since opening in 2007, this flagship has provided a relaxed retail sanctuary for Lim fans weary of hunting for his designs at crowded department stores or out-of-the-way boutiques. The understated white-plaster walls and cast-iron railings here echo the California native’s laid-back-yet-elegant aesthetic. Double-breasted coats and strapless dresses casually hit above the knee, while basic navy trousers and knit turtlenecks are cut from luxe cashmere and wool mohair fabrics. Lim’s forte is in the understated details—headbands splashed with Swarovski crystals, shift dresses adorned with pearls, and shorts pressed with rolled hemlines. Accessories include shoes, belts, handbags, and eyewear, as well as seasonal runway jewelry and in-store exclusive items like cashmere travel blankets and eye masks. And the bi-level boutique also showcases his more recent pursuits, like the Kid by Phillip Lim children's line and the organic Go Green Go collection. — Kendall Herbst
