It showcases Spanish labels you won’t find elsewhere, as well as big designer names like Bottega Veneta, Toteme, Zimmermann and Cult Gaia. The store has its own range of fragrances, as well as a tailoring house for made-to-measure items.

Eliurpi

Elisabet Urpí and Nacho Umpiérrez show their artwork at galleries around Spain. They also have this beautiful appointment-only boutique with a selection of homeware, clothing and accessories – think intricately woven sun hats and line two-pieces. We love the brand’s straw bags for summer.

Moirai Market

This vintage store is a refuge for everything from old-season designer dresses to affordable accessories and bags. Rails of clothes are divided by colour, so you can make a beeline for something specific or go panning for hidden gold. There are plenty of Y2K options, as well as classic pieces and cool sunglasses.

La Manual Alpargatera

Bassal Store

From outside, this store could be mistaken for a chic gallery, but look a little closer and you’ll see a small edit of clothes behind the marble plinths. Just a short walk from Gaudi's La Pedrera, Bassal occupies the former home of modernist architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch, and showcases emerging brands like Bielo, Cordera, Marsèll and Barcelona-based Nathalie Schreckenberg.
