Dalaga

Profile

Sisters Mary and Michelle Mangiliman opened their second New York Dalaga outpost on the cusp of Soho. Amid the neighborhood’s brand-name boutiques and chains, their shop is set apart through its affordable wares and casual every-girl’s-closet vibe. The sisters started out by designing a women’s line, but eventually focused more on buying and selling clothing and accessories from Brooklyn- and New York�based designers. The second storefront is smaller than their Greenpoint home base, but still chock full of cross-body bags, cutout tops, and statement jewelry. Lace curtains line the dressing rooms, and flower bouquets and chandeliers offer a blend of Manhattan cosmopolitanism and Brooklyn charm. Loyalists may miss the mixed-and-matched Anthropologie-style eclecticism of the original, but they can still peruse the store’s many adorable dresses or pick up a vintage-lingerie-inspired exclusive from the likes of the Loved One. — Jessica Chou
