Scandinavian couture
Updated May 9, 2007: The shop is closed.
If you are fond of Scandinavian style and would like to enjoy it also on you, go to Sand Store in Mikonkatu, just opposite Kämp Galleria. Sand label, established by Danish Lene and Søren Sand, has really nice collection of formal and informal garments for every occasion of life.
The store is quite roomy and well-stocked, at least when compared to other fashion boutiques in Helsinki. One third of the floor space is reserved for men and the rest for the ladies — as usual. Besided clothes, the store sells shoes and various accessories.
Sand is not a top-notch label, but still quite expensive — especially in Finland that cannot boast being an inexpensive country… The quality is high and the design has timeless appeal.
