A different type of store

A department store
A large shop stocking many varieties of goods in different departments.
A haute Couture
Expensive, fashionable clothing produced by leading fashion houses of good quality.
Pret-a-Porter
Designer clothes sold ready to wear rather than made to measure.
Ready to wear
Clothes made for the general market and sold through shops rather than made to order for an individual customer.
A pop up shop

A market stall
An open space or covered building where vendors convene to sell their goods
A vintage store
A shop that sells on clothing and accessories that have been salvaged from past decades, to be worn again by todays consumer.
