Now Open: Epaulet Spruces Up Smith
Monday, May 12, 2008, by Leslie Price

It's not as if Brooklynites needed another spot on Smith Street to break out the plastic, but we won't hold that against good-looking newcomer Epaulet. The chic men's and women's boutique, which opened last Thursday boasting a Walter pop-up shop, will eventually offer pieces from brands like Christopher Deane, Modern Amusement, Cheap Monday, Gram Footwear and Rogues Gallery. The space at 231 Smith has undergone a bit of a facelift since it was home to brightly-colored vintage sweater purveyor Ohio Knitting Mills which folded April 1st—what was rustic is now sleek and modern-looking (also, the floors have been swept clean of all traces of zig-zaggy sweaters). Owners Adele Berne and Michael Kuhle, both former buyers, are also planning more special store-within-a-stores, but brands are TBD at present time.

Epaulet
231 Smith between Butler and Douglass Sts, Brooklyn; (718) 522-3800
Tue—Sat noon—8pm; Sun noon—6pm
