Frommer's Review
If you do any window-shopping in Athens, you'll soon see how
expensive most things are, except during the January and August
sales. Not surprisingly, Athens's poshest clothing stores are
in Kolonaki. Much of what you'll see here is American or
European and carries a hefty import duty; most of the rest is
Greek designer wear. Good streets to browse include
Voukourestiou, Kanari, Milioni, Tsakalof, Patriarchou Ioakim,
and the most expensive street in town, Anagnostopoulou--where
Versace, Ferre, Lagerfeld, and Guy Laroche have boutiques, as
do well-known Athenian designers such as Aslanis, Nikos,
Filemon, and Sofos. If shoes are your thing, head for Tsakalof,
with a heavy concentration of the shoe stores that most
Athenians find irresistible.
