Readers' Choice
1500 Woodward Ave., Detroit; 313-437-8095; johnvarvatos.com
John Varvatos, the luxury designer and Allen Park native, launched his 4,000-square-foot Detroit store last year with a private Alice Cooper concert. In addition to the chic, rock 'n' roll apparel — T-shirts, boots, leather jackets — you can head upstairs to find a record and vintage audio equipment store. Even if you're only window-shopping, the store is worth a visit to see the dozens of prints of iconic rock photography that line the walls.
