Nine West

Nine West

Nine West is famous for shoes and handbags — the pumps, wedges, and totes that built its name on department-store shelves for decades. That same polished, office-to-dinner sensibility carries into the label's clothing, the collection stocked here right now. Pants lead the rack. Straight-leg dress trousers cut for the office sit next to cropped, relaxed culottes built for the weekend. The name itself comes from that shoe business's first home: founders Jerome Fisher and Vince Camuto ran their original Manhattan office at 9 West 57th Street, and the address became the label. That same design eye shows up in Nine West blouses — a ruffle-neck sleeveless style, a plaid shell top — and in pieces like a two-tone textured pencil skirt. Same sharp shape, different pieces of the closet.
