The Scene – The tiny, chartreuse-fabric-draped store showcases the owners' (Yuki Ohta, Amara Felice and Andrea Fisher) work alongside that of their talented friends. Friendly staff, mellow shoppers and clothing and accessories you won't find anywhere else make for an experience you shouldn't miss. – – The Goods – Remember this: Eidolon means "ideal image" in Greek and that is, explains Fisher, "what we want to create for our customers." Eidolon's a labor of love--and you'll feel it the moment you walk in the shop. Look out for Fisher's boudoir-inspired silk pants and…

This is THE place
by bluetreekat2002 at Citysearch
After shopping at Banana haven't you ever wanted something more original and interesting? After buying jewelry or a purse at H&M haven't you ever wished you knew some small shop of designers with beautifully made pieces?
This is the place. I bought a pair of lacy underwear my boyfriend almost died over. I bought a pair of betty boop underwear that are SO cute. I've spent serious time contemplating some of their purses, which are the kind of pieces that you get stopped on the street by other girls who ask you where you got it. My mother came with me once and bought me the most beautiful camisole that I wear with jeans. I love this little gold clutch that I've had for two years that I bought there. And I've gotten two pairs of boots that girls, and even one guy have commented that they love.
So while It's nice to buy at the generic stores, this is the kind of place you talk about to your friends, that you buy signature pieces at. I love that you can talk to the designers personally and even make requests. Check it out.
- Pros: You can talk to the designers in person. Good quality items with signature pieces that people will always comment on.
- Cons: They're always closed on monday.
