Shopping malls are not native to New York City. Here, shopping is a pursuit likely to lead to the exploration of Manhattan’s unique neighborhoods.
Give yourself time to wander, and you’ll discover some of the city’s smaller and lesser-known boutiques, but don’t miss out on the top designer brands and world-renowned luxury department stores that make New York a shopping mecca. We’ve selected some of the very best to help you on your way.
SOHO
The cobbled streets of Soho are packed with designer boutiques and luxury brands such as Louis Vuitton, Burberry and PRADA.
The area is popular with Manhattan’s fashion followers seven days a week.
NOLITA
A crowded weekend shopping destination, though perhaps not quite as popular as the famous Soho, Nolita contains fewer brands and more boutiques.

In the neighboring Meatpacking District, you’ll find Jeffrey, Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen and more among fresh galleries, gourmet food stores and eclectic antique stores farther toward the Village.
MIDTOWN
FIFTH AVENUE
Fifth Avenue, between Rockefeller Center and Central Park, is the pinnacle of the classic Manhattan shopping experience.

57TH STREET
The iconic Louis Vuitton flagship, typically awash in some version of the brand’s legendary monogram, is on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street, setting the tone for this fashionloaded thoroughfare.
Next door is Yves Saint Laurent and not far away are other flagships such as Burberry and Chanel, as well as some of Manhattan’s most well known art galleries.
Madison Avenue
As far up as 79th Street, Madison Avenue is packed with French and Italian labels that include Giorgio Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Versace, Prada, Hermès, Jean Paul Gaultier and Chanel.
Between some of these big names and farther north, you’ll find several fascinating bookstores and antique dealers of old Manhattan.
MAJOR STORES
APPLE STORE, FIFTH AVENUE
At first glance, New York’s flagship Apple Store is not much more than a glass cube, yet it boasts hidden depths.

FAO SCHWARZ
Nearly 150 years old, this legendary toy shop is a favorite destination for adults and children, tourists and New Yorkers alike.
If not for shopping, it is worth visiting merely to marvel at the displays in the Grand Hall and FAO Schweetz, a classic New York candy store.
HENRI BENDEL
Advertised as ‘a girl’s playground,’ Henri Bendel is a Fifth Avenue shopping icon for anyone interested in accessories, cosmetics or gifts. Although technically it’s a department store, inside it feels more like a series of sophisticated boutiques.
DEVI KROELL
