| - Stopped in the other day with some friends visiting from out of town, thought it'd be nice to explore the trendy, artistic and funky side or neighborhood of Charlotte known as Plaza Midwood. While strolling down the street and checking out other businesses, we paused at Social Status and decided to peek in.
The place has a cool layout, nice hardwood floors, shoe walls, sock and hat displays and hanging racks of pants and shirts. No two items are the same. Threads are definitely unique. Store is definitely boutique style, stuff you won't find easily replicated and worn by others. However, you well definitely pay the price for it. Sneakers were priced around $160-180, the few that I looked at, and shirts and pants were similarly priced between $50-125 each, which is not what I call very reasonable in my book. Most of the sizes I saw were mediums and larges.. my question is if they have one item on display, do they have the same item in varying sizes in the back? Or is it, you see what you get? For Charlotte, I was kinda shocked that a boutique with this clothing style existed.. but as far as urban styles and pricing, I'd rather shop online at dr jays or visit a boutique in a larger city... I couldn't see myself paying that much for one item.
Cool place to browse though.
As far as customer service, we got a hello and goodbye, but for the most part he was tied up with his friends and since they've never laid eyes on us before they gawked.. immature move but, beyond our control.
