Planning a shopping spree? Here are the multi-label fashion boutiques and cool concept stores on our radar.
Want to know where to source a one-of-a-kind cocktail dress from an independent local designer? Or trying to track down a cool under-the-radar streetwear label? We love our online shopping as much as the next girl but there is nothing quite like stepping into a brick-and-mortar store and trying on outfit after outfit until you find that perfect fit. Ahead, we’ve put together some of the best multi-label boutiques and concept stores to go shopping in Jakarta. You can thank us later, but we take no responsibility for that credit card bill!
Masari
Masari is a brilliant accessories shop known for bringing in some of the best independent labels all under one roof. We particularly love them for their selection of local labels like Aidan and Ice, Jasmine Elizabeth footwear, and Klove. While there’s nothing quite like entering a Masari store to admire their sparkly trinkets, their newly launched online shop offers more than just accessories.

Ara
Ara places high on our list for their commitment to highlighting the talents of both emerging and established Indonesian designers. The beautiful concept store is the brainchild of a group of fashion insiders who believed that local talents needed a shop of its kind. Located in Kemang, Ara stocks a range of ready-to-wear labels like Laison by Aurelia Santoso and Peggy Hartanto, and designers such as Sapto Djojokartiko.

It’s truly the perfect place to shop for when you’re trying to buy a unique gift or under-the-radar local label.
