Clothing shopping in Florence

    MM

    Leather goods in Florence may be of high quality, but designs can grow repetitive. Not so at MM (also known as Monaco Metropolitano), which offers bags, belts and bracelets in creatively natural shapes and textures. You can often watch craftspeople cutting, tooling and sewing the exquisite leathers right inside the shop’s door.

    Stockhouse Il Giglio

    Cheap is a relative term in Florence, but you can pick up some interesting men's and women's fashion items here, and occasionally turn up some genuine bargains. Name labels can come in at a considerable discount. Florentines consider it one of the best stockhouses for picking up labelled items at off-the-back-of-a-lorry rates.

    A Piedi Nudi nel Parco

    Specialising in high-end avant-garde designers, this riverside shop may cause price-tag shock with its industrial-chic duds for both men and women. However, you’re certain to take away something no one else at the office is wearing.

    Assunta Anichini

    Founded in 1912, this is the oldest children's clothing shop in Florence. The styles of their exquisite suits and dresses have changed little since - all the clothes are still made by hand and with the best fabrics.

    Angela Caputi

    Caputi’s jewellery workshop is in the Oltrarno, but here she also sells one-of-a-kind women’s clothes gathered during her travels around the world, from avant-garde German hoodies to artisanal Japanese silks.

    Stockhouse Il Guardaroba

    Across town, this is worth dropping by, although the range is not huge. The place is arranged more like a standard fashion boutique than a higgledy-piggledy threads lucky dip.

    Quelle Tre

    Three sisters join forces to create their own line of quirkily elegant clothing and accessories that combine fine natural fabrics, Bohemian cuts and vivid colours and prints.

    Stockhouse One Price

    Although more densely stocked (in a smaller space) than the others, the idea basically remains the same.
