Antonioli

Stepping into Antonioli feels a bit like attending a blown out Rick Owens runway show. The clothes are neutral, if not largely dark; the decor is industrial; and the space boasts a brutally cool vibe that you can’t quite put your finger on. Fittingly, it carries Rick Owens, along with Ann Demulemeester, Givenchy, Maison Margiela, and Off-White, which all speak to its identity as a very slick place to shop.

           

Important to note is this is not the place to go to find bright colors, punchy prints, ruffled frocks, or anything of the sort. Here, you’ll find sculptural silhouettes in dark, mossy hues, sleek leather goods, elevated basics, and a few patterns thrown in for good measure. The prices are high but so is the curation, so if you’re looking for a unique shopping experience with a decidedly luxury lean, this is where you should head.

The space itself is massive and almost feels like a converted warehouse. The floor is a puzzle of hardwood, concrete, and slate; stone pillars add texture to the space throughout; metal racks, slick shelving, and large mirrors line its walls and hold court at its center; and dim lighting and a lack of windows give it an especially underground feel. Carrying both men’s and women’s clothing and accessories, it’s a maze of chicness everyone will enjoy exploring.

For a preppier look, pair a plaid Balmain skirt with a Burberry cardigan and white knee-high Isabel Marant boots. Or, choose to cozy up to a roomy Drk Shdw knit and relaxed Rick Owens leather pants. Patterned Acne Studios boots, quilted Saint Laurent bags, leather Anne Demuelemeester gloves, studded HTC Los Angeles belts—Antonionli has all the accessories you could ever need to polish off whatever you choose and then some. Set some time aside for browsing and make sure you arrive ready to shop on the dark side.
