Legacy Boutique to Celebrate Grand Opening on April 1

A new clothing boutique is opening up soon called Legacy Boutique just about a block down from Phono Select (at 2418 K Street, right next to Tres Hermanas). Owner Debbie Milanova is no stranger to the fashion biz, having worked for the last five years alongside Sacramento fashion-staple Mary Kawano at Krazy Mary’s Boutique. “She really helped me to learn what it was truly like to run a small business,” Milanova shared with Submerge. “I learned it all, from in-store buying appointments, to out of town tradeshows. Mary really made sure we all got the opportunity to do everything.”

Milanova made it clear that Kawano had always been aware of her intentions to eventually open up her own shop.

“Mary and I are absolutely cool,” she assured. “She is really more of an inspiration because I respect her so much. She knows so much about the business. My style is completely different than hers and everyone will be able to see based on the exclusive clothing lines I chose.”

Legacy will carry new and vintage clothing and accessories for men and women and the list of brands Milanova supplied Submerge with is long and impressive. Some standout men’s brands include Aviator (cotton tees from your favorite classic novels), Freshjive, Local Celebrity, Chaser L.A. (throwback band tees from Nirvana to Little Richard), American Apparel, Le Tigre and many more. On the women’s side brands like 10 Corso Como, L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani, Style Stalker, Gentle Fawn, Kat Von-D and many more will be available as well as locally designed jewelry. Legacy Boutique will celebrate it’s grand opening on Friday, April 1 from 4 to 9 p.m. where customers will be given 20 percent off their first purchase. There will also be an after-party celebration at The Golden Bear at 10 p.m.
