Show off a new look this spring with some of SF’s most fashionable purveyors.
The Adeline dress from SF-based Kamperett
KAMPERETT
Timeless styles, high-quality fabrics and sustainable design are the holy trinity of everything that makes Kamperett so beloved. The SF-based womenswear label offers the perfect spring wardrobe with breezy tulle dresses, linen blazers and the famous Jervois shirt crafted with Japanese cotton. 3686 20th St., kamperett.com
MCMULLEN
We know McMullen is technically in Oakland, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention it. The boutique’s collection of designer brands (Dries Van Noten, The Row, Proenza Schouler) is to die for, but we especially love that the store uplifts and amplifies emerging BIPOC talent. 2257 Broadway, Oakland, 510.508.0773, shopmcmullen.com
MR. LIN
Sitting pretty in the heart of Presidio Heights, Mr. Lin is known for its casual yet worldly menswear. Expect big names like Herno, Barena, Sunspel, Altea, Santoni and many more. 3615 Sacramento St., 415.688.7992, mrlin.com

ROTHY’S
These boots were made for walking, literally. Rothy’s classic designs focus on sustainability and are total showstoppers. The brand’s Point 11 flats are perfect for the office, while the super comfy Casual Clog remains a fan fave. 2448 Fillmore St., 415.875.9898, rothys.com
OUTDOOR VOICES
Outdoor Voices makes keeping those New Year’s resolutions easier than ever—and stylish. Shop the Hayes Valley locale’s fashionable fitness apparel, including sports bras, crop tops, leggings, jackets and more. 555 Hayes St., 415.678.5456, outdoorvoices.com
TAILORS KEEP
At Tailors Keep, it’s all in the name: made-to-measure menswear that’s been meticulously tailored and fits like a glove. We love the selection here. 618 Washington St., 415.856.9736, tailorskeep.com

WASTELAND
Luxury labels and hard-core punk elegantly converge at Wasteland, a fashionable SF-area staple since 1985. The boutique is authentic and unique, offering new and gently used vintage pieces that stand out. 1660 Haight St., 415.863.3150, shopwasteland.com
HEIDI SAYS
The ready-to-wear threads at Heidi Says are a sophisticated blend of West Coast casual and SF’s charming edge. Evolving offerings routinely feature such designers as Anine Bing, Ganni, Loeffler Randall and Missoni. 2426 Fillmore St., 415.749.0655, heidisays.com
ALYS GRACE
We couldn’t come up with a better symbol for spring than Alys Grace’s butterfly logo if we tried—emerging from the shadows and spreading its beautiful wings. The fashions match the hype, with luxurious brands like AG, Moussy, Veronica Beard, Ulla Johnson and Vince on offer. 3490 Sacramento St., 415.359.0198, alysgrace.com
Khaite West Pintuck dress, Khaite West Iconic pumps and Sylvia Toledano Swan gold cuff, all at McMullen
CARY LANE
With four locations to choose from—Hayes Valley, Inner Sunset, Valencia Corridor and Haight Ashbury—there are no excuses not to visit Cary Lane. There are hundreds of brands to shop, including samples and overstock items from around the world. Multiple locations, carylanesf.com
COUTURE UOMO
Another master tailor makes our list: Couture Uomo in Union Square, a by-appointment-only boutique specializing in European menswear. The brand has been dressing Warriors players off the court since 2005, so you know it’s good. 424 Sutter St., 415.509.4698, coutureuomo.com
