From the catwalk like entrance to the fully equipped D.J. booth, it’s clear why Lounge is a favorite

among red-carpet celebrities like Usher, Diddy, Kate Hudson, and Naomi Campbell.

Owner Jack Menashe describes his 16,000-square-foot space as “Soho’s only designer and lifestyle emporium”—

in simpler terms, this means men’s and women’s specialty denim, big-name fashion labels,

and whatever "It" brand the celebs are currently sporting. If the clothing doesn’t get your blood pumping,

the D.J. will; in fact, record-spinning aficionados from around the city come here to

scope out some of the hottest and rarest house and world music in circulation.

Accessories, including men’s and women’s jewelry, are limited to handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces

and includes both rock-and-roll styles from designers such as Prince Ferdinand

and more romantic pieces by names like Licia Atelier.
