With its Paris-style skylights, chandeliers, silently gliding assistants, and coat of arms, the Maison de Bonneterie is Amsterdam's most gracious department store. It has basics such as white goods and appliances, but it is most loved for its array of women's fashions, ranging from supermodel frocks to the most proper basics. Browse on the ground floor, and you're likely to come upon a great buy. They regularly have limited supplies of designer lamps, bedding, or other home objects on special offer.
