Beyman is Turkey's answer to Ralph Lauren, without the horsy patch. There's absolutely nothing cheesy about this store, which carries casual chic for men and women as well as housewares worthy of a museum. The Beymen Mega Store in Akmerkez is more along the lines of an upscale department store, where you can find cosmetics, stationery, and even furniture. The small outlet store in Eminönü carries reduced-price men's shirts and ties.
