Pretty Ballerinas
The girly décor of the Spanish shoe shop Pretty Ballerinas is truly eye catching: golden mirror and chandelier, pink shelves and leopard patterns, and amidst all this, brightly coloured ballerina flats, whimsical accessories and beauty products. The Spanish brand’s first German store – located near Checkpoint Charlie – packs a pretty punch in a small space.

bleed
Opening in the Blackriver Store in Friedrichshain, this is the Bavarian sports and streetwear label bleed’s first incursion into the capital. The label stands for ecological and fair trade clothing made of vegan materials like hemp, recycled polyester and cork, be they hoodies, sweaters, dresses or accessories. Scruffy eco fashion is so passé!
