If this week's fashion shows have you staring at your banal, drab wardrobe with contempt, haul yourself over to Opening Ceremony on Howard Street, where you'll find hip duds from emerging indie designers for both men and women. Owners Carol Lim and Humberto Leon take a fun slant on stocking their store, picking a different region of the world each year, and devoting their racks to its designers. Styles are generally more avant-garde than commonplace, but that's what you come here for — exquisitely made, eye-catching pieces that get you excited each time you wear them. The duo recently snagged a shipment of playful Spring pieces from the Proenza Schouler for Target line — give a call today to see if they have any left.
