Profile
The name is unfamiliar, at least for the moment. But this designer-shoe store in the meatpacking district has the potential to give the neighborhood's other footwear powerhouses (Christian Louboutin, Jeffrey New York) a serious run for the money. Iris is a little-known Italian company that manufactures shoes for Marc Jacobs, Chloé, and Veronique Branquinho. But unlike other multibrand stores, this boutique doesn't carry just selected looks from those powerhouse names; it will have every single style (stiletto, boot, slingback, peep toe, platform) in the entire line of each label. In other words, you can find shoes that until now were otherwise unavailable in New York.
Bridal Shoes
The Italian manufacturer’s first stateside store hawks the designer shoes it produces (Viktor & Rolf, Chloé, John Galliano). A pair of John Galliano strappy heels in rose gold and pale pink ($895) would look lovely peeking under any gown.
