We love Chicagoans with professional prowess, and C. Dahlstedt's got it in spades. Not only is he a clothing designer, Midwest-born and bred, but he's also recently opened up his own namesake boutique on Division Street, giving shoppers an in-person (and totally local) experience.
Carrying contemporary designs for men and women, this boutique is perfect for any shopper (or couple!) who might be a little sick of doing it all online. Walk in, shop, try on, and purchase. Remember those days? They're back! Make your next shopping trip a little sweeter knowing that everything you spend stays right here at home.
