WOMEN’S FASHION
Walking distance from Chartier: 2 minutes
Why we love them: Owner Deanna Fitzmaurice is a style icon, and she generously shares her keen eye for fashion with her expertly trained team and every single person that comes in the doors. You don’t need to know what you’re looking for when you visit Virtu, you just need to share how you want to feel with the team of stylists and they somehow ALWAYS find the exact perfect thing….and can show you 18 different ways to wear it. They’re magicians (incredibly well dressed ones, that is).
Fave purchase: Anything from the “C’est Moi” bamboo collection
