Frocks and furnishings with an Asian flair.. The Scene
Dark, serene and opulently appointed, Kimera's interior is full of subtle surprises: a raised platform holding furnishings and gift items; a doorway that leads to a second building that houses Kimera Design's clothing collection; an unexpected atelier. Sleek Asian armoires and occasional tables provide decoration, setting off an eclectic selection of women's clothing, home furnishings and gift items.

The Goods
A graduate of Princeton and FIT, boutique owner Yvonne Chu regularly designs new collections, specializing in luscious silk shantung tailored to fit every curve, whether as casual minis or full-length formals, with boxy boleros to match. The collection's reflected, too, in the lavish pillows displayed throughout, which are constructed in similar rich silks, as well as in leather. A fun selection of tees (many featuring flowered appliques and tight but flattering styling), lush patchwork scarves, brocade vests and shoes is also available, as is jewelry by local designers.
