What People Are Saying About Opening Ceremony
Featured Review

The coolest of the indie labels for men and women are housed in this high-ceilinged, chandeliered purple space. Every year, the owners pick a region and stock 15 emerging labels from said locale. The best-sellers during the year carry over into the next, so look for hit-labels from Hong Kong, Brazil and Germany from years past. Can't miss Brits include Alexandre Herchcovitch's beautifully loud-printed dresses and Rachel Comey's men's dress shirts and cashmere sweater dresses. Don't forget to check out the store's eponymous label, designed by store owners Humberto Leon and Carol Lim.
Editor's Tips
- When To Go:
- There's a small upstairs TopShop outpost in the loft space, where stock is refreshed every three weeks. It flies off the shelves almost as fast as it's put out, so call to see when the next shipment is coming.

disposable shoes :(
by blackswanballerina
the clothes are cool but i bought shoes there and they literally fell apart within like three times of wearing them. they were opening ceremony brand. i guess the rest of it though is good, but like.. come on. i didn't pay $200 for a disposal pair of shoes. and that's just about the cheapest thing there, but still. not cool. in their defense, though, i haven't tried to return them yet. maybe they'd take them back idk.

Coolest clothes in town
by sam6x
many of the labels, including many foreign ones, that they carry at this store you can't find elsewhere in the city. The owner has great taste.
- Pros: Great clothes, hard to find labels
- Cons: pricey

Indie Central
by jonlikesit
This is a really great place is you are looking for clothes that you can't get anywhere else. I definitely would go ahead and cut out The Co-op and just come here if you are looking to step up your game. I wouldn't come here looking for a bargain but then again you get what you pay for.
- Pros: Best in town.
- Cons: None.

indie?
by beautychick
I went here but I usually shop the one in LA . I was told they had indie beauty products but I couldnt find what I was looking for. I hope I didnt confuse it with another nyc indie store, anybody know what they carry now as indie beauty products?

The Pinnacle of Street Threads
by bench395
Come here for truly unique cutting edge clothing. Many of the items they carry are unique to them and if not hard if not impossible to find, I purchased a Nike Tech Pack jacket that can't be bought anywhere else, not even Nike (I tried). The help is very friendly however I recommend consulting them on sizes unless they have a clear unstanding of your style or what you are looking for.
- Pros: Truely unique clothing way ahead of the curve
- Cons: Unfortunately you get what you pay for.
