    Agência 117

    No place for wallflowers, Agência revamps wardrobes with tartan wellies, candy-bright dresses and Miss Sixty garb. Marilyn Monroe, velvet crucifixes, a hair salon – it’s all at this eccentric Bairro boutique.

    Bad Luck

    Rock ’n’ roll is king at Bad Luck, where a gyrating Elvis greets you. Be whisked back to ’50s and ’60s America with cow-print boots, polka-dot rockabilly dresses, oversized shades and grease for super-slick hair.

    Story Tailors

    Luís and João bewitch with floaty, feminine polka-dot, gingham and ruffle designs at their enchanted forest of fashion, bedecked with chandeliers and gnarled wood. Ask the mirror on the wall what it thinks.

    Not as kinky as it sounds, this store lures with lacy lingerie, itsy-bitsy bikinis and the ever-popular ‘bad-ex’ voodoo dolls.
