PlantShed, the veteran Upper West Side flower shop, opened an outpost a mile from the original, with ferns and chai lattes (555 Columbus Ave.).

Plantshed has grown orchids, azaleas, and all manner of native grasses in its 10,000-square-foot shop–slash–rooftop greenhouse on the Upper West Side since 1981. But in the past year, the company has become … well, hip. In February, it did a pop-up with Kith, and before that it collaborated with Aimé Leon Dore on a photo shoot. Recently it opened up a second location that includes a “floral-inspired” coffee shop: You can buy orchids and ferns, plus drink some extremely 2018 beverages like a butterfly-pea-flower spritzer ($6) or a chai latte with activated charcoal ($6).

Kamau Harper brought his ’90s-style brand Lyfestyle to Soho (7 Cleveland Pl.).

So Cardi B is a fan?
Yes. She bought a Notorious B.I.G. shirt, which we have at the store with all our other ready-to-wear, like our multicolor slides ($80). Soon we’ll have kiosks where you can customize clothes that’ll be made in our factory in Ridgewood. We’re only a couple blocks from Supreme, so we’ve got to get with the big guys now.”

In mid-June, Eleventy’s U.S. president Geoff Schneiderman will open the modish Italian suit company’s first Stateside store (77 Greene St.).

“In Italy, if you show up to work in a flannel suit after Memorial Day, forget it — it would be verboten, like ordering a cappuccino after 11 a.m. America doesn’t have those types of rules — so to cater to the U.S. market, we’ve added some lighter-weight cottons, like our wool-silk-and-linen-blend suit ($1,995). For the store design, we’re going to use a lot of waxed iron, brass, natural oakwood: modern but classic. We think having a sleek shop in Soho is better advertising than, say, paying for a campaign with some sexy guy and some sexy girl on a billboard in Times Square.”
