Shops in Juárez

Casa Caballeria

Best for: A menswear mecca with a barbershop
Address: Havre 64, Juárez, 06600, Mexico City

Set in a three-storey Gothic townhouse, Casa Caballeria presents a diverse edit of menswear, from streetwear to tailoring, alongside locally made leather shoes.

Utilitario Mexicano

Best for: Mexican home decor with a backstory
Address: Marsella 3a, Juárez, 06600, Mexico City

Utilitario Mexicano specialises in artisanal homeware, with reinterpretations of traditional domestic items. The store’s concept is a modern interpretation of a Mexican local market, set in an unusual space where Mexican craft meets chic minimalism. It houses more than 1000 products spanning furniture, tableware and interiors, all of which are made in small independent workshops across Mexico City. Pick up as many enamel cups, shot tumblers and woven bags as you can fit in your suitcase.

Carla Fernández

Best for: Architectural womenswear using Indigenous textiles
Address: Álvaro Obregón 200, Roma Norte, 06700, Mexico City and Calle Marsella 72, Juárez, 06600, Mexico City

One of Mexico City’s greatest design success stories, Carla Fernandez has boutiques in Roma Norte and Juárez, with her collections also stocked in some of the country’s leading department stores. Fluid, androgynous silhouettes are cut from textiles created in collaboration with Indigenous artisan communities across Mexico, with a focus on natural dyeing and embroidery. Guided by the philosophy that “fashion is not ephemeral”, Fernández hits the mark in creating conscious, fashion-forward clothing you’ll reach for time and again.

Shops in Roma Norte

180º Shop

Best for: Longstanding concept store for local creativity
Address: Colima 180, Roma Norte, 06700, Mexico City

180º Shop is widely regarded as Mexico City’s first true concept store, opened in 2011. Inside, a vintage jukebox and a checkout counter made from VHS tapes set a playful, retro tone for a carefully curated selection of clothing, jewellery and shoes by Mexican designers. With a strong focus on sustainable fashion, expect architectural silhouettes, sculptural pleats and kimono-inspired tailoring alongside collectible T-shirts celebrating Mexico City. The boutique also regularly collaborates with national museums and international brands on exclusive capsule collections and limited-edition pieces.

Shops in Condesa

For All Folks

Best for: Cruelty-free cosmetics
Address: Zamora 19, Condesa, 06140, Mexico City

Stock up on cruelty-free and genderless beauty and body products and fragrances at this small but beautiful storefront in Condesa. Products use natural and soothing ingredients with a particular focus on calendula petals, as well as using refillable packaging. Wander through the light-filled space to sample products like an anti-aging gold mask, intensive super booster serum, and incense and moss perfume. The staff are knowledgeable and careful to ensure you get the best products for your skin.

San Miguel Chapultepec

Yakampot

Best for: Fluid silhouettes informed by Mexican craft
Address: Salvatierra 45, San Miguel Chapultepec, 11850, Mexico City

On the edge of Condesa, Yakampot is a contemporary Mexican fashion boutique founded by Concepción Orvañanos. Flowing long robes, maxi dresses and poet blouses hang on the rails, in a soothing palette of white, mustard, and indigo. Pieces draw on Mexico’s heritage and are made in collaboration with artisan workshops across the country. The calm space reflects the mood and sensibility of the collections, presented alongside accessories and occasional homewear.

Xinú Perfumes

Best for: Homegrown fragrance in a striking garden pavilion
Address: Alejandro Dumas 161, Polanco, 11560, Mexico City

Xinú Perfumes is a homegrown fragrance house, which bottles the spirit of its native Mexico. Copal, agave accords and native florals celebrate the diverse and exotic terrain of The Americas, encased in walnut-capped bottles. The collection extends to candles, soaps and body care.

Occupying the third-floor of a rounded wooden pavilion within a lush garden, the setting is as much a draw as the scents. The dramatic atmosphere feels more like a contemporary gallery than a traditional perfumery, offering a fully immersive experience.

Ikal

Best for: Unisex Mexican design and fragrance
Address: Masaryk 340, Polanco, 11550, Mexico City

This is a go-to shopping destination for beautifully made, unisex pieces from Mexican designers. There is also a distinctive in-house fragrance collection that incorporates local ingredients, with scents such as ‘desert flowers’, ‘petate’, and ‘mud and chocolate’. The offering extends to haberdashery, homeware, and even bicycles, all displayed in a stripped-back interior of smooth concrete floors and simple wooden shelving.
