Dekka Showroom Opens
Sometimes showing unique style is like swimming upstream against a current of popped collars.
It isn’t easy to scout uncommon pieces that actually look good.
But just when it seems simpler to succumb to mass-produced crap, salvation has arrived with Dekka, a new showroom dedicated to local designers. Tucked into the second floor of a row house, the two-room shop has clothing, jewelry, cosmetics, and art.
Items range from Yosoy’s Miami-inspired dresses to Xzuberance’s polo-packed urban wear (in additional designs by National Society of Soul, Biribelle, lilylilyshop.com, and GOOD GIRLS). Also on hand: jewelry made from Peruvian silver, handbags, mineral makeup, paintings, and music. If it’s an art form worth showing, it’s here.
Proving that it’s always darkest before the spawn.
Dekka, 1338 U Street NW, between 13th and 14th Streets, second floor
(202-986-1370 or dekkafam.com).
NATIONAL SOCIETY OF SOUL is a part of this Designer Co-OP!!!!
