The NextWomen Fashion & Retail Theme
Located on the corner of 10th Avenue and 19th Street, in the far western boundaries of the gallery-dense neighborhood of Chelsea, NYC, is a surprisingly plain, brick-faced shop, without an ounce of signage to direct you inside.
In sight of the celebrated High Line, the first indication that you are about to enter a revolutionary retail experience is the black metal door handle, tellingly worn to its shiny brass base. Step inside, and you are promptly and cheerfully greeted by the staff, who inquire if you have ever been to STORY before, and if not, happily "explain" STORY to you.

Stevan Paul hails from the Hanseatic tribes – those tough sea-faring fellows who sailed into headwinds and discovered new lands. So you could say that looking into the unknown and proudly stepping forward is natural to him.
