The project The End of Fancy Shopping is a visual narrative documenting the decline of high-end retail during the NYC lockdown. As many stores closed or went out of business, the fashion industry faced a significant downturn. Boutiques emptied their shelves, leaving behind stark, illuminated spaces that revealed a striking contrast between clean geometric forms and a sense of total abandonment. With uncertainty looming, the city’s retail landscape stood in limbo.
