Looking for that perfect outfit? We picked out our favourite boutiques in Jakarta that will have you looking red carpet ready in no time.
From birthdays to Christmas and New Year’s Eve, there’s always a special occasion to dress up for. Though we’ve kind of enjoyed the sporty, athleisure trend for a little while – hey, any excuse to stay on-trend and still be comfortable – we love putting those cocktail dresses and heels to good use. After all, who doesn’t love feeling glamorous every once in a while? Lucky for us, there’s plenty of luxury boutiques and concept stores to go fashion shopping in Jakarta – from multi-label to local designers, here’s where to find the best looks to fill up your chic wardrobe.
Fashion shopping in Jakarta: The best boutiques, concept stores & local designers
1. JADE
JADE is the go-to boutique where Jakarta’s fashionistas flock to when they need their style fix. The beautiful store offers a curated selection of amazing dresses by designer labels like Zimmermann, Alaia, and Low Classic, just to name a few. If you’re intimidated by the high price tags, don’t worry – JADE has killer end of season sales so do keep peeking back in to find out when their prices become a little bit more wallet-friendly.

3. Peggy Hartanto
Seen on world-renowned fashion publications, social media darlings and Hollywood starlets across the globe, Peggy Hartanto has proven that she’s definitely one Indonesian designer whose dresses you need in your closet. Her signature feminine shapes are easily dressed up or down depending on what your mood is, whilst the bold patterns and vibrant colours show your personality. Although her fabulous label is available at many boutiques and e-retailers, visit Peggy Hartanto’s shoppable website for a complete look at her collections, past and present.

4. masarishop.com
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 Peggy Hartanto (above), Aidan and Ice, Jasmine Elizabeth footwear, and John Hardy accessories. 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.

5. The Goods Dept.
The Goods Dept. is a lifestyle concept store that sells everything from fashion to grooming and home goods to accessories. A one-stop shop where you can pick up a cool pair sunnies or locally made leather bag, snag hard-to-find sneakers or pick up a beautiful ceramic teapot. It’s truly the perfect place to shop for when you’re trying to buy a unique gift or under-the-radar local label.
