Now Open: Pierre Hardy Brings His Splurgy Heels to the West Village

Pierre Hardy launched his first U.S. store in the West Village yesterday, just in time to outfit New Yorkers in towering, eye-catching kicks for the holiday party rounds. The space is minimalist, moodily lit, and modern, with neon hues and exotic skins popping against the gradational gray shelving units. (The glinting style above is exclusive to the New York flagship, inspired by the Manhattan skyline.) The shop carries the full women’s resort and spring lines, as well as men’s shoes and handbags.
