Proenza Schouler- Upper East Side- 822 Madison Ave.

Get ready for the downtown chic duds to go uptown to  Madison Ave, where they will be laying down the ground for their NYC flagship store! Not only will it  be Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez’s first stand alone store in our NYC shopping mecca, but this will also be the first Proenza Schoulder stand-alone store anywhere! (We feel so special!) McCollough and Hernandez are keeping hush hush on the exact opening date, but we can expect it sometime near the end of 2012.

YSL- Soho- 149 Mercer St.

Known for the hottest fashion spots in lower Manhattan, it should come as no surprise that YSL will be joining its high-fashion counterparts in Soho this summer and we are at the edge of our seats awaiting its arrival. Word on the cobble stone Soho streets is that this boutique is set to open early 2012, so stay tuned.
