Top quality tailoring from Polish designers

Talk of the town: A favourite of Polish film and music stars, Femini's creations are often seen on the red carpet.

Krakow's hardly overflowing with independent fashion boutiques, but Femini could hold its own in Paris or Milan. Local designers Monika Pietrzak Szlęk and Katarzyna Wilk-Filipowicz bring bold contemporary touches to classic European designs, using beautiful fabrics – satin, velvet, chiffon, silk – imported from Spain and Italy.

Femini's renowned for its wedding dresses, too, should you be swept away by Krakow's romantic ambience.
