    Top Shops for Fall

    Where to shop in Dallas right now: 8 must-hit stores for September

    Rachael Abrams
    Sep 8, 2014 | 11:37 am

    September brings to mind two of our favorite things: football and fashion. (And sometimes we get to combine the two.) This month, we look at what's new at some of our favorite shopping destinations so we can freshen up our closets — and homes — for fall.

    Accents
    This West Village favorite moved to Mockingbird Station, and the new store is 40 percent larger. That means more space for clothing, accessories and gifts from local designers, LA-based indie lines, and labels out of Italy and Hong Kong. Owner Lucy Huang says the new boutique reflects the shop's maturation from accessories to all wardrobe essentials.

    Cantoni
    One of the best furniture stores in Dallas has a new Calligaris Studio, with 1,600 square feet of luxurious Italian furnishings, lighting and accessories. Exclusive to Cantoni, this studio is the brand's first shop-in-shop in Texas. Additionally, Cantoni is getting ready to launch Re-Vive, the world's first performance recliner with three flex movements, available in three leather options.

    Chantilly
    Now that football is back in play, it's time to add a some school spirit to your wardrobe. But forget about jerseys; the Design District's Chantilly boutique has styled series of ensembles to match your school's alma matter. Think purple blouses for LSU, burnt orange dresses for UT and black-and-red maxis for Texas Tech.

    Neiman Marcus
    Those who covet Christian Louboutin's red soles but who can't bear to spend $1,000 on a pair of pumps can now get a taste of that luxury with Louboutin's high-gloss nail lacquer. Available at Neiman Marcus for $50 a bottle, the polish comes in 30 colors. With the highest percentage of pigment in the nail industry, the polish has maximum impact — not unlike the shoes.

    Riffraff
    A recent addition to the Plaza at Preston Center, Arkansas-based Riffraff offers fun, affordable fashions ranging from casual daytime outfits to fierce nighttime ensembles. Riffraff is also the biggest distributor of Show Me Your Mumu, a chic California-based line featuring bold prints and boho styles worn by Jessica Alba, Andi Dorfman from ABC's The Bachelor and model Ali Landry.

    Stanley Korshak
    Men, you're in luck: Suitsupply is now open on the Men's Shak courtyard, becoming the brand's second Texas store and its first shop-in-shop concept. Suitsupply's new spot features a full collection and an in-store tailor. With exceptional fabrics from the Northern Italian region of Biella, suits come in classic, contemporary or formal fits and range in price from $399-$999. The shop also features ties, jackets, pants, dress shirts, shoes and more.

    Target
    Altuzarra for Target — a complete line of clothing, shoes and accessories — arrives in stores September 14. Brand creative director Joseph Altuzarra, winner of the CFDA Womenswear Designer of the Year award in 2014, believes fashion can be transformative. Among our favorite looks are python-printed skirts, blouses and jackets that can go from a day at the office to a night on the town.

    Ylang 23
    With a newly revamped e-commerce site, Ylang 23 is making resisting its baubles an even more impossible feat. Especially when you consider that in addition to designers Jennifer Meyer, Irene Neuwirth and Cathy Waterman, the jewelry store recently welcomed Larkspur & Hawk to its roster. Exclusive to Ylang 23 in Dallas, Larkspur & Hawk boasts beautiful necklaces and earrings made with luxurious topaz stones and hand-foiled metal.

    Larkspur & Hawk jewelry is exclusive to Ylang 23 in Dallas.

    New giant Quge-tip from Dallas-based Q-tip sells out in 24 hours

    Q-tip's Quge-tip

    A giant version of an everyday product has sold out in 24 hours: Called the Quge-tip, it's a 6-foot version of the iconic Q-tip, the beauty staple that's been around for more than a century.

    Measuring nearly six feet from tip to tip, Quge-tips feature enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design.

    The Quge-tip was released on December 9 and sold exclusively online in limited quantities for $35. Alas, according to a spokesperson for Dallas-based Elida Beauty, the parent company of Q-tip, the product flew off the virtual shelf.

    "Now that they’re sold out, Q-tips is surprising fans with social giveaways," the spokesperson says.

    The Quge-tip is one of two products just released by Dallas companies — both of which feel like they could be April Fools Day jokes — except that both are for real.

    Dave & Buster's Claw Purse Dave & Buster's Claw PurseD&B

    Dave & Buster's Claw Purse
    The Dallas-based eatertainment chain is leveling up holiday gifting with the debut of the Claw Purse, a limited-edition purse designed by Chain. The Claw Purse is inspired by one of the brand's most iconic games — the claw machine — and according to a release, is "the season's most unexpected fashion statement" for anyone who loves bold style, nostalgia, and a little bit of play.

    To mark a milestone for the brand, the Claw Purse launches alongside the expansion of Dave & Buster's Human Crane, a viral, full-body game experience that turns guests into the claw — where they are lowered down into a bin of huge prizes to grab whatever they choose.

    Beginning in December 2025, the Human Crane will appear in over 112 Dave & Buster's locations with additional stores rolling out nationwide throughout the season.

    But back to the purse: It made its debut at Chain's Holiday House, an event at the company's HQ in L.A., where "it quickly became a crowd favorite among creators, stylists, and culture icons," or so says the release. Which also calls this "the first creative collaboration" between Dave & Buster's and Chain, bringing together Dave & Buster's beloved gameplay with Chain's signature culture-forward point of view. So maybe there will be more collaborations in the future.

    Q-tips Quge-tips
    The Quge-tip is a nearly six-foot supersized version of the "iconic" Q-tip cotton swab, first invented in 1923 and the go-to for beauty, baby care, first aid, cleaning, and everyday moments that call for a gentle, precise touch.

    The six-foot Quge-tip features enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design — offering a new way to experience an iconic tool at a dramatically large scale, designed as a playful, oversized tribute.

    The release nots that Quge-tips tap into a rising trend of consumers using Q-tips swabs for alternative tasks, which now make up a meaningful share of cotton swab use: From dusting high shelves and cleaning hard-to-reach corners to large-scale art projects.

    The six-foot Quge-tip features enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design — offering a new way to experience an iconic tool at a dramatically large scale.

    The company insists it's a real thing — they do a very funny video mocking late-night ads for cheap products — and that after debuting at qugetips.com on December 9, they sold out of their initial run. One note: They do not reveal how many Quge-tips were sold. It could just be, like 10 that were for sale.

    There's a chance they'll be doing another issue, and they encourage interested shoppers to diligently follow their social media.
