18 East

18 East puts new-season clothes at the fingertips of Elizabeth Street shoppers. Every rack leans into the current rotation—coats, shirts, trousers, denim—picking its way through what just dropped online or what’s arriving at boutiques this week. Those who prefer trying things on choose the back wall mirrors; quiet corners sit filled with shoes and accessories whisking between winter and spring. Behind the main entrance on 146 Elizabeth St, New York, NY 10012 you’ll find an easy return counter and three fitting rooms painted in a matte charcoal. After you’ve finished, a brisk walk gets you back to the subway or a cab—call +1 (646) 866-4238 to recount your haul, or simply head north on Elizabeth and look for the white awning. The directions drop you at the door in six minutes from SoHo’s edge and eleven from Chinatown’s rooftops.
