High Stylewith a

texas twist

Art meets fashion at NorthPark Center, where works by some of the world’s most renown artists mingle with storefronts that range from splurge-worthy to budget-friendly. Neiman Marcus sets the Texas standard in luxury goods, along with its contemporary collection at CUSP by Neiman Marcus. Nordstrom, complete with The Wedding Suite, Macy’s and Dillard’s round out the center’s anchors.

When we said “splurge-worthy,” we weren’t kidding. The corridors of NorthPark read like the pages of Vogue— or the labels inside your favorite celebrity’s closet. From Valentino, to Gucci, to Versace, to Bottega Veneta, to Louis Vuitton, there’s no shortage of luxury.

But NorthPark isn’t one-note. There are plenty of more budget-friendly—but no less stylish—storefronts to peruse, like Kate Spade, J.Crew, Madewell and H&M. Look for Longchamp, Zara and Sam Edelman to join the NorthPark lineup in 2016.

L.A. has Melrose and Robertson. Dallas has Knox/Henderson, where some of the city’s most note-worthy fashion boutiques and home furnishings stores reside. On Henderson Ave., start at The Gypsy Wagon, where boho looks that skew a little western mingle with cowboy boots and equally Texas-worthy home accessories. Walking into the first Texas location of Planet Blue is like entering a high-fashion version of California’s Coachella music festival. (Read: high-fashion bohemian at its best.)

Also on Henderson, Coco & Dash is a favorite among local interior designers with its luxury home furnishings that blend antiques with new and contemporary. Further down Henderson is Milk & Honey, known for regularly taking the paychecks of Dallas’ young and fashionable crowd. Expect everything from soft, slouchy basics to boho daywear to sleek looks perfect for a night on the town.

Across Central Expwy. on Knox St., Planet Bardot has a devoted following for its curated collection from internationally- acclaimed and emerging designers. Kate Spade and Steven Alan round out Knox St.’s fashion offerings, while favorites like Crate & Barrel, Restoration Hardware, Pottery Barn and Mecox are a hub for home décor enthusiasts.

If your day takes you to Knox Street, it’s worth heading south on McKinney Ave. to check out more of Dallas’ premier shopping spots. Forty Five Ten is a fashionista’s dream, with the season’s most note-worthy runway looks from names like Balenciaga and Givenchy. If high-design home décor is more your style, don’t miss BoConcept, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams, Design Within Reach and Jonathan Adler. Four blocks west on Travis St., Grange Hall is known for home accessories, jewelry and art with a mysterious, gothic edge, while the leather goods and art at STAG Provisions for Men are worth a look even if you’re not shopping for a man—seriously, they’re that good.
