Description
Saks' much-heralded recently-upgraded shoe department on the eighth floor has its own zipcode (you can send snail mail via 10022-SHOE): and perhaps the best selection in the city. Shop from a stellar selection that includes everything from teetering Christian Laboutin slingbacks to woven Bottega Veneta flats to over-the-knee boots by Alexandra Neel. While the footwear department is its crown jewel, Saks—which takes up an entire block, and is the first flagship (established in 1924) of the nation-wide chain—is stuffed to its gills with classic and contemporary designer in-store boutiques (Miu Miu to Marc by Marc Jacobs). -Rebecca Messner
