While I was in Chicago back in September, I ran across a new store:
AllSaints. It’s based in the UK and they have an amazing space, though the website does not do the clothes justice and they are a vegan's nightmare with all the leather. Check
out the wall o’ Singer sewing machines in the first picture below, among other things… A person working there said that they own something like over half of the world's Singer machines from that era. I couldn't help but wonder if my Grandmother's was in there. I'm guessing this is not the only store that has them...they have a few stores.
The clothes were all mostly black and neutral. All with a sort of literary/vintage/industrial flair. The boots were low and chunky. I love finding new stores to roam through. Another all-time favorite is Zara.
Check out the cool video on their home page right now featuring gallery owner Lucy Chadwick. Her clothes, hair, and style are perfection.
Wow, those machines are awesome! Really cool.
