James Coviello (CLOSED)

Designer James Coviello's Lower East Side shop offers his entire collection along with limited-edition accessories and a selection of art books, candles and stationery. “I was going for a cross between a 19th-century women’s haberdashery and a cabinet of curiosities,” says Coviello. “I tried to create a space where people could forget the world outside and wrap themselves up in a warm, inviting and nostalgic place.” Customers can peer into the designer’s studio (located behind the pint-size boutique), which executes special orders, custom designs and free alterations.
