Holl New York Shutters After Three Months on Orchard Street
This image has been archived or removed.
Clocking in at three months, Holl New York definitely ranks as one of the quickest “quickie closures” in recent memory. Gabriel Holl’s trendy menswear shop debuted in mid-September, occupying Dedegumo’s former watch outpost at 188 Orchard Street. Ultimately, Holl didn’t survive the onset of the holiday season.
The computer printout in the doorway notes that they “have had to close the doors” for an unspecified reason, and hope to “reopen at another location soon.”
Despite the setback, Holl gear is apparently still available through their web portal.
