Goods: Clothing and accessories for women. Designers: Coven, Loeffler Randall, Jarbo. Yeojin Bae and Serpico. Owner: Melissa Shipley (aka Lissa) is a former CPA who’s had a fashion addiction (and a WWD subscription) since she was a kid. She opened Lissa on Maxwell in late 2006. Vibe: The sleek, carefully organized shop makes shoppers feel at home with a comfy seating area; a flat-screen TV broadcasting fashion shows, extra-private dressing rooms, offerings from an espresso machine and Diet Coke-stocked fridge and uber-welcoming and knowledgeable sales staff. Price Range: Expensive. The Look: Impeccably pulled-together. Ladylike and edgy. Oozing chic but never baring brand names. Shopper’s Perks: Lissa tends to showcase designers’ debut collections, so browsing through her collection will acquaint you with up-and-coming fashion-world stars. The Thing for Spring: Lissa loves the unique twists on the crisp, white, menswear-inspired shirts.
