Double Bay's Cosmopolitan Shoes is one of the world's most sublime stores which stocks the best of the best including Balmain ready-to-wear clothes, Givenchy bags, Robert Cavalli accessories and killer heels by Celine, YSL, Balenciaga, Lanvin, Azzedine Alaia , Sergio Rossi and Alexander McQueen - to name but a few of the haute, international brands.
The owner, Rose Ghosn, travels constantly to find her ultimate collection of luxury labels and it is the store's personalised, discreet service that has won it so many devotees. In prime position right on Knox Street, the interiors are sexy with lots of privacy.
Cosmopolitan Shoes even sports a black granite champagne bar for favoured customers who perhaps wish to celebrate finding the perfect pair of heels, or the handbag they had been looking for and couldn't find anywhere else. It is quite simply, shoe heaven.
