Somewhere in SoHo there is a women's clothing boutique with columns in the front wrapped in gold foil. Where is it?
I am pretty sure it is north of Canal and east of 6th. I think its south of Prince and west of Lafayette. It is on the east side of a north-south running street. I thought that it was on Mercer around Spring or Broome but I just went and retraced what I thought were my steps and didn't see it.
Walking through the front door, on the left are shelves with folded jeans. The style of these jeans each have a woman's name, which is painted on the floor in front of the jeans of that style, along with a rendition of the jeans themselves so you can get an idea of what they look like unfolded. In front of you are the dressing rooms. To the right are the registers.
Inside the clothes hang from bars suspended from the ceiling with wires or chains. The floor is dark and not made of wood. It might be poured concrete or it might be linoleum. The dressing rooms in the back are made of wood, and have rotating, spinning lights with stencil masks projected on them (like stars and stuff).
Thanks in advance for any help.

Best answer: p.s. i think it's a pop-up store, so it might no longer exist.

There used to be a store called Keiko (or something like that) in SoHo that had gold foil columns. I'm not sure if it's still around though - they sure don't have much of a web presence if they are. I saw it sometime last year.
