Make it past the freaky windows and inside you'll find one of the best consignment shops in the city. Allan and Suzi have specialized in gently-worn 20th-century designer wear for over a decade, and their selection is marvelous. Their extensive vintage and contemporary couture collection, which ranges from conservative Chanel to over-the-top Halston, Mackie, and Versace, is so well priced that it's well within reach of the average shopper looking for something extra-glamorous.
