Madhappy makes NYC retail debut

A Los Angeles-based contemporary clothing brand has made its way to the Big Apple.

Madhappy has opened its second flagship location following its debut in West Hollywood in late 2023. Located in the heart of Manhattan’s upscale Nolita neighborhood, the 1,800 sq.-ft. brick-and-mortar space aims to showcase the direct-to-consumer brand and build community through “design, food and conversation.”

In partnership with Los Angeles-based creative studio PlayLab, Inc., Madhappy, which launched in 2017, designed the space in a similar manner to its first store. The dual-level Madhappy New York store features the brand’s signature blue-dyed concrete, brushed aluminum, ceramic tile and Douglas fir.

Available in-store will be the brand’s latest collections of t-shirts, hoodies, crewnecks, knitwear, pants and more, along with items from its recent Guest In Residence project in partnership with supermodel Gigi Hadid.
