Century 21
Exceedingly popular with fashionable locals and foreign travelers, the Century 21 chain is
a bounty of season-old brand name and designer brands sold at steeply discounted prices.
Featuring everything from Missoni to Marc Jacobs, prices may sometimes seem high, but
compared to retail, they're a steal.
