Azaleas has been bringing unique lingerie and hard-to-find brands to the East Village since opening in 2002. This boutique is filled with colorful lace, sexy silhouettes, and wearable styles for every season, and paired with the friendly and knowledgeable staff, it has easily stayed a neighborhood favorite.

Upon entering you are immediately greeted by the vast selection of corsets, bras, panties, and swimwear in a variety of colors and styles. Lingerie prices range from $20-$100 and feature pieces from Belabumbum, Cosabella, Elle Macpherson, Hanky Panky, Honeydew, Huit, and Maison Close. Don't be alarmed if you only see smaller sizes on display, the staff is happy to grab all additional sizes they have stored in the back. Favorites and store bestellers are Belabumbum's Copacabana Lace Underwire Bra ($35) that comes in ten colors and fits most perfectly, and Hanky Panky's colorful lace thongs ($18). There is also a large selection of comfortable sleepwear and sexy chemises ($60-$250).

In addition to the lingerie collection is the colorful swimwear from Salt, Vitamin A, Chio di Stefania D, and Tigerlily ranging from $75- $180. Azaleas also has a small selection of trendy clothing and affordable jewelry, and you can often find a well-stocked sales rack in the back.

Azaleas is a great spot for finding a unique lingerie piece or staying up on swimwear trends with helpful staff to help you navigate through sizing and styles.
