Investor and entrepreneur J. Christopher Burch launched C Wonder in 2011 from his 5,000-square-foot flagship storefront on Spring Street, located in NYC’s tony SoHo shopping and cultural district. Airy and fabulously modern, the store features bright, lacquered lime floors and dressing rooms that allow shoppers to adjust the music and lighting. As for C Wonder’s clothing, shoes, accessories, and home décor: Burch once described his designs as suited for “the working mother who deserves to indulge.” Sparkly coated-canvas tote bags, lace-up rain boots, shiny enamel cuff bracelets, trendy suede wedge booties, and poppy iPhone and iPad cases blend classic preppy-chic with fun contemporary motifs. Oh, and in case you’re wondering: the C in C Wonder stands for “customer.”
