What People Are Saying About Akira

In Short – Robin's egg blue and tangerine walls stenciled with butterflies don't overpower this expansive showroom of designer and the store's own line of clothing. Premium denim in all washes and cuts line wooden tables, providing wardrobe staples along with barely there club tanks, military-style winter coats and silky tops in bold geometric prints. A special occasion section to the left stocks sequin cocktail dresses, flowy halter gowns and big names like Mark Bauer.

Good selection, very trendy boutique
by WindyCityNewbie at Citysearch
You can find good deals here and there, but if it's not on sale, it's definitely over priced. I enjoyed the large selection of clothing and the sales person was very helpful. The quality of the clothing might not be the best, and the clothing is very trendy.
- Pros: Helpful staff, sales
- Cons: Unoriginal clothing

Great Shoes!
by colby at Citysearch
When I first moved to Chicago there was only 1 Akira on North Avenue in Bucktown/Wicker Park....now I think there are about 5 spanning from the old neighborhood to downtown....it's kind of disconbobulated.
Anyways, despite the geographical challenges, I have always shopped for shoes there and will continue to do so. They have veyr affordable unique shoes that I cannot find in other botiques or large chains. They do carry style trends but many of the shoes there are just great looking shoes that no one else has which look great forever!
- Pros: Very trendy yet unique selection
- Cons: I feel like there are about 15 of these stores scattered!
