Yes, there are three new Uniqlos opening across the city and a block over from the former home of Opening Ceremony (RIP) is a homewares boutique owned by Williams Sonoma. But there are also new stores not run by multinational conglomerates, including the tiny Cobble Hill shoe box selling Shaker-influenced antiques, a Madison Avenue menswear shop with a Savile Row\u2013trained tailor on call, and a bookstore that carries cookbooks alongside Maine-made hand brooms.<\/p>\n
With the reopening of the museum comes a newly renovated and much larger shop. Visitors will find artist-collaboration pieces, including bodega-themed charms by Tschabalala Self, whose sculpture Art Lovers is displayed on the museum\u2019s fa\u00e7ade, and fungi, algae, and miso chocolates created by Anicka Yi and the Mexico City\u2013based chocolatier Casa Bosques. Black baseball caps with INTERNET stitched on the front, made by Rhizome, are also available (235 Bowery).<\/p>\n
Nonfiction, a Seoul-based line of elegantly packaged perfumes, lotions, and candles with scents like Neroli Dream and Gaiac Flower, is opening on the Lower East Side (38 Orchard St.). Farther west, Skin1004, the skin-care brand known for its Centella Light Cleansing Oil, opens in Soho (470 Broadway).<\/p>\n
Just down the street from On and Kith, Vivobarefoot, a London-based line of shoes designed to mimic the feeling of walking barefoot, is opening its first New York store, where shoppers can get a foot scan and analysis along with movement coaching (248 Lafayette St.).<\/p>\n
Troy Chatterton, the former manager at Three Lives & Company, is opening Wild Sorrel Cookbooks, which will carry new and used cookbooks \u2014 including ones by Alice Waters and Deborah Madison \u2014 along with hand brooms from Maine and pottery made in Connecticut (332 E. 13th St.). In Bed-Stuy, the \u201c1619 Project\u201d co-creator Nikole Hannah-Jones\u2019s the North Star Books + Bar will have shelves stocked with literature by Black authors; a caf\u00e9 serving food, coffee, and drinks made with spirits from Black-owned labels; and a basement speakeasy called Ephemera with a wall designed by Blk Mkt Vintage. The shop will host book talks, workshops, and events in the Harlem Renaissance\u2013inspired space (339 Macon St., Bedford-Stuyvesant). Tamizdat Book Corner has set up a shop-within-a-shop at White Rabbit\u2019s Books on the Upper West Side composed almost entirely of banned Russian literature from the Cold War to the present along with Slavic-language books (and ones in translation). Best sellers include a fairy tale set in a Russian jail written by theater director Zhenya Berkovich, who has been imprisoned since 2023 and whose lawyers smuggled out her manuscript, according to the shop (200 W. 86th St.).<\/p>\n

GreenRow \u2014 the new English-country-cottage-inspired member of Williams Sonoma\u2019s group of brands that includes West Elm and Pottery Barn \u2014 has opened its first store a few doors down from the old Opening Ceremony space. Caned chairs and overstuffed couches with block-print upholstery, whipstitched jute and flatweave rugs, floral-printed pleated sconces, and an assortment of vintage pieces are on offer (47 Howard St.).<\/p>\n
Enfants Riches D\u00e9prim\u00e9s, the brand known for its vintage-book and record store in the Marais called Anti Public Library \u2014 and its $1,500 graphic T-shirts with lines like I TOLD YOU I WAS SICK \u2014 is opening its first womenswear and menswear boutique in New York (155 Franklin St.).<\/p>\n
The Italian teen brand (with wares barely discernible from Brandy Melville\u2019s) follows its first U.S. store in Long Island\u2019s Roosevelt Field mall with a new location in Soho, just a few doors down from Garage and Princess Polly (496 Broadway).<\/p>\n

Over the past year, dozens of new stores have opened on Madison, and more are coming: D\u00f4en opens its second New York City shop in a space designed by Amy Kehoe and Todd Nickey of Nickey Kehoe, who cite a trip to Versailles as part of the inspiration for the uptown store (1013 Madison Ave.); Fleur du Mal is opening its second Manhattan shop in a boudoirlike burgundy-velvet-decked space (901 Madison Ave.); and Susan Alexandra\u2019s second boutique, next to Nectar Cafe, is stocked with martini menorahs and I \u2764\ufe0f NEW YORK beaded bags. Shoppers can take a selfie in a custom Murano-glass mirror under a seed-beaded chandelier (1088 Madison Ave.). A block away, customizable puffy-heart and bubble-letter necklaces on rainbow-colored paracord and faux-gold chains that cost less than $200 are for sale at Roxanne Assoulin (1069 Madison Ave.). For about 25 times that price, you will be able to buy the rotating pendants and rose-gold chains at Marli, the high-end-jewelry line worn by Bella Hadid and Rihanna, which will open a two-story Art Deco\u2013inspired flagship with a Champagne and espresso bar (67th St., at Madison Ave.). Thom Sweeney, the British made-to-measure and ready-to-wear menswear line, will offer appointments with Savile Row\u2013trained bespoke cutter Max Whitaker along with a full bar with free drinks on the top floor. At Missoni\u2019s new two-level boutique, located in the spot once occupied by J. Mendel, shoppers can ascend a multicolor staircase reminiscent of the Italian designer\u2019s zigzag textiles (787 Madison Ave.).<\/p>\n
