Madame Matovu - West Village Vintage



On a mid-afternoon stroll through our much-beloved West Village, we stumbled upon Madame Matovu, a vintage boutique nestled into West 10th Street (in other words - bliss within bliss). We were greeted warmly by the owner, Rosemary, who adds to the charm of the place. Among the exceptional selection were Dior and Hermes scarves, '80s bombers, and a gold YSL top. Surrounded by the elegant artwork on the walls and the clothing and accessories draped throughout the store, one feels as if she is happily browsing through the closet of an elegant lady.

In the photo of the storefront, we see a portrait of the lady who represents Madame Matovu. Rosemary first eyed this portrait on a postcard that she picked up in France. She saved the postcard, with the dream that she would use it if she ever opened her own business.

Well, as we learned in Cinderella, the dream that you wish for can come true...
