New York City's bocnyc is a small, carefully curated advanced contemporary women's ready-to-wear boutique. The store's focus lies in offering our clients quality clothing from emerging and established designers from around the globe. Established in 2013 on the Upper West Side, this boutique on Columbus Ave revels in sharing its feminine, practical, and modern aesthetic with an ever-growing community.

Avant Toi was founded back in 1994, but the brand’s approach to making sweaters, knit shirts, and other woven items still feels fresh, thanks in large part to the handmade, one-of-a-kind, well-worn effect of each piece. This isn’t your grandparents’ cashmere, but it’s made just as well as theirs was. Avant Toi uses the same time-tested techniques craftspeople have been mastering for generations, then keeps going, distressing clothes, adding length, and generally making cashmere feel less stuffy and more current than it has any right to feel. You can wear Avant Toi with jeans, you can wear it on the weekends—and you’ll be hard-pressed to wear it out.
