Hayes Valley Boutique for Women and Men

  • Free-spirited clothing
  • Innovative Designs
  • Bohemian Sensibility

After 20 years in business, MAC's success derives from a focus on up-to-the-minute design, cumulative decades of fashion know-how, and strong family ties. Siblings Ben and Chris Ospital returned to San Francisco with mom Jeri and decided to put their New York fashion experience to work in their hometown. The product of their labor is MAC. These his and hers boutiques share a commitment to free-spirited clothing, innovative designs, and a bohemian sensibility in products from Europe as well as homegrown talents. Women's lines include Dema, Manifesto:, Anna Sui and Miller et Bertaux. Men's lines include John Bartlett, William Reid, Oliver Helden, and Armand Basi. The men's store also carries the latest in home accessories from Droog Design and Ken Wingard among others.

Editorial Review for M A C (Modern Appealing Clothing) – by Catherine Wargo

In Short
The exposed brick, high ceilings, and funhouse mirrors in this boutique echo the deconstructed and unexpected quality of the clothing offered by the sister-brother-mother team of owners. Handsome English-cut suits for men and spartan dresses for women hang alongside a mix of local and international modern jewelry. Best known as a source for clothing from Belgian designers like Dries van Noten and Martin Marjiela, they also carry an extensive sampling of Japanese designers.

User Reviews for M A C (Modern Appealing Clothing)

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

10/24/2005 Posted by wenbattnn

One of the coolest places to shop in San Francisco is M.A.C. You'll find no fast-food clothing here. The clothes in this shop are the real deal -- straight from Belgium, France, Japan, and of course the good ole USA. I shop here quite often and almost always find something I just can't live without. M.A.C. carries brands that you just can't find elsewhere in San Francisco. The staff are fabulous and always incredibly helpful. In my opinion, shopping in San Fran isn't complete without a trip to M.A.C.

Pros: Friendly staff, Good selection, Stylish
