Where’s the garment/fabric district in NYC? PLEASE READ THE DETAILS BEFORE ANSWERING!?
I’m looking for a fabric district in the NYC area that is much like the LOS ANGELES garment district (i.e. a large area with separate streets dedicated to the sale of a single item- fabric, flowers, men’s shoes, notions, women’s clothing, etc.) The prices should be significantly less (wholesale) than what you’d pay at a commercial fabric store such as Joann’s. Please, no links to NYC visitor shopping guides, I’m not looking to buy some shoes at Macy’s. I would like a person who has experience with both areas to answer.this question with some detail. I am looking for info primarily about FABRIC and NOTIONS. Thanks!
There are consecutive notions stores located on 6th Avenue between 34th and 39th Street – mostly on the on the East side of the street. Lots of buttons and trims and things.
The fabric stores are on 7th Ave in the same areas – 34th to 39th.
None of these are wholesale places. However they are not signifcantly less than a Joann’s (which we don’t even have in Manhattan).
If the stores sell at wholesale prices – they only sell to the trade – NOT the public.
