Michael Nusskern - Style that Stands Alone

Newport Beach, Orange County Boutique Pique
By: Erin Hall @ Boutiquing

Set the Scene: Statuesque and sidling up to the new Nordstrom Fashion Island, Michael Nusskern is hardly hiding in the department store's shadow. In fact, the large and luxurious new boutique lives to lessen the look of cookie-cutter clothing and launches a love for new lines to the next level. Creatively clothed mannequins linger on a runway-like platform in the center of the store, pulling fashionistas in with the promise of purposeful pieces that make a point. Any of the skilled and subtly-styled staff are happy to personally pull pieces that please...but never fear, the emphasis is on service and stretching your wardrobe limits, not pushy selling.

Labels We Love: Flavio Castellani, Hoss, Iro, Geren Ford, Humanoid, Graham and Spencer, and Inhabit.

Prepare to Pay: CLOTHING - Dresses from $250 to $500, Tops $100 to $350, Pants $150 - $300
HANDBAGS - $250 to $800
JEWELRY - $75 to $350
ANYTHING UNDER $80? Basic tees, but really this is a place for investment dressing.

Sale Sighting? Don't miss their twice annual sales - deep discounts on their best designers!
