A couple of weeks ago LGF and I got an invitation for a private tour of the new Antwerp store RA 13...

I'm just going to come out and say it : this is definitely one of the most beautiful stores in Europe...

They boast elaborate selections of a.o. Bless, Peter Jensen, Kitsuné, Opening Ceremony, and Antwerp Fashion Academy graduate Elise Getliffe.

The vintage collection is incredible. I spotted a beautiful and fairly prized black Christian Dior evening gown.

Also, RA 13 stocks what is probably THE biggest Gareth Pugh collection in the world.

We've seen the collection at Dover Street Market and I'm sorry but they've got nothing on this selection.

LGF and I couldn't stop staring and thus forgot to take pictures. But you can take our word for it, it's one of the most impressive things we've seen store-wise.

They're hosting a Christmas Market until the 25th of December. You should go check it out.

Bring cash, have some glühwein and buy a dayglo necklace for your dope ass grandma.
