Actually most major cities and even minor cities are fashionable today. No city really has a unique style lately.

I disagree. Then why is it millions and millions of people come to NYC to buy clothes? Also, Why the fashion of "I love NY" was adapted in the other states? For example, I saw people wearing t shirts of "I love Atl", "I love SF", why? This was a part of the fashion style that was in NYC, then other states adapted it. Lastly, there are more fashion trends that are from NYC that other people adapt.

Also when New Yorkers are out of town they are easily spotted by the way they dress. So no city really has a unique style lately? I disagree.

You need do more research. Atlanta has most of the stores you mentioned. You honestly think a city deemed excellent in shopping doesn't have a Coach store? Come on, every mall in US has that. Even Gainesville, FL has that. When I said you didn't keep good track of Atlanta, I expected you to know better. Gucci, Burberry, Neiman Marcus, Saks, Ed Hardy, Diesel etc.. Atlanta has them and I've been to them. I don't know how you came to the list but the safest way to check is go to the brand's website and use store locators. At least you should check the two most famous malls in Atlanta, Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza.

Edit: On another note, I saw you are not the same person who said he'll name some store present in Dallas but not in Atlanta and he kept good track of Atlanta stores.

Yeah well I see no other city dressing dramatically different than any other city.

Although I hate contributing to the swelling head of some New Yorkers, I unfortunately have to agree the rican. New York is the primary outlet for American fashion and retail. Many if not most urban trends started up there.

But don't for one second think that y'all got the market cornered on looking good, because there are some serious fashion plates in other metros that would give a NYer a run fo' dey money.

Atlanta has most of those stores that you have listed with the exception of only four stores.

Well I know that Atlanta only has one Neiman Marcus and I think Dallas got 2 or 3 of them. Dallas also has Barneys New York which is a MAJOR high end department store. Neither Houston or Atlanta has one. This is a store that will only be found in the top fashion cities. I don't even think Chicago has one (don't quote me on that).
