Between clubbing, gambling and partying by the pool, Las Vegas has you covered. But when it's time to do some shopping, Sin City has some of the best out there. Whether you want to be part of a TV show like Pawn Stars, shop at the only Givenchy in the United States, see some crazy art while you shop or pick up some of the baddest kicks on the block, you're bound to find it in Vegas. Here, a curated list of 10 Las Vegas stores that will give travelers a taste of all that's special covering high-end fashion, vintage, cool curated boutiques, great souvenirs, beauty and more.
If it's the coolest kicks you seek, 12 A.M. Run at The Linq has the best. Find exclusives (if you're willing to wait in line) and more to satisfy every sneakerhead out there.
This vintage store specializes in designer labels such as Missoni, Yves St. Laurent, Thierry Mugler and more straight out of the ’70s and ’80s. Even vintage wedding dresses, handbags and accessories can be found in the ever-changing mix here. [Photo: Chelsea McManus]
Check out resurgent Downtown Vegas and its all new vibe with a stop at Coterie, a cute boutique with clothing for men and women right on Fremont Street. Look for the Check Cashing marquee to find the place without a sign. [Photo: Susan Stapleton]
How often do you get to go on the set of a TV show? Gold & Silver Pawn Shop is the home to History Channel's Pawn Stars, and yes, you can see the items bought on the show or bring in one of your own novelty items to see if the boys are interested in buying. Who knows? You could be on the next episode.
If you're looking for Vegas souvenirs, head to Kitson for some of the best, kitschiest and most original. You can also pick up fashions, beauty products and more from the largest Kitson in the country.
Not only can you shop the entire collection of Louis Vuitton at this two-level store in the Shops at Crystals, but you can try to see the Ganszeld exhibit there from James Turrell. Note, this is by invitation only.
Vogue editor Anna Wintour is said to have called this the best boutique in America. Outfit at Wynn Las Vegas features a runway down the center with the great fashion houses of the world parading their wares on mannequins. Here find chichi labels such as Azzedine, Alaia, Lanvin, Zac Posen, Narciso Rodriguez, Maison Martin Mariela Matthew Williamson, Yigal Azroel and Givenchy, just to name a few.
