  • H&M

    Hennes & Mauritz, a Swedish retailer, was a smash success when the 5th Avenue store opened in New York in 2000. Their secret? Kicky, young designs for men, women, and children at rock bottom prices, creating a look that belies the price tag.

  • One of the last survivors of what used to be rows of discount stores selling linens for table, bed, and bath. European linens and home accessories are a specialty at this store.

  • Since 1936 this mammoth showroom and workshop has provided fabrics and upholstery to the public at wholesale prices.

  • This is one of the most attractive stores in the city, featuring designer fashions and a notable selection of cosmetics.

  • Set up like a series of boutiques, Bendel’s displays innovative, fun women’s fashions for glamorous shoppers. The sales staff are particularly friendly. The signature brown and white shopping bag is such a status symbol that the pattern is used for accessories.

  • Another wide selection of foods and an upstairs laden with woks, kitchen tools, steamers, teapots, and other utensils.

  • One of the largest food emporiums in Chinatown stocks tonics, teas, jellies, ginseng, vegetables of every shape, and row upon row of sauces.

  • One of the better-known shops offering Chinese herbs said to cure anything from arthritis to impotence. Ginseng is available in teas or supplement form.

  • Kleins of Monticello

    One of the most attractive shops on the block offers well-tailored business and casual wear by American and European designers.

  • Lismore Hosiery Co.

    Stored away in boxes stacked floor to ceiling are name brands in underwear and socks for men and women at bargain prices. To take advantage of the savings, know the brand and size you need.
