I still own the very first item I ever purchased from Anthropologie—a gray pleated midi skirt with each fold featuring a different floral Liberty print. At the time, I didn’t know of any other stores like Anthropologie, which had completely transformed my plain white cube of a shopping mall stall into something more akin to an English cottage or Spanish villa. Roughly 15 years later, the brand still has that elevated boho vibe that lets shoppers in the U.S. and internationally picture themselves vacationing off the coast of Italy, growing their own vegetables in their backyards or embodying a vintage vibe without the stress of vintage shopping, all through the power of impeccable styling.
Nowadays there are many more brands and multi-retailers that are similar to Anthro, for both clothing and home decor, such as Tuckernuck, Free People, Farm Rio, Serena and Lily and Urban Outfitters. With the help of recommendations from PureWow editors, who all have decades of shopping experience, and customer data, I’ve rounded up 20 of the best stores like Anthropologie to shop if you’re looking for that elevated boho chic apparel, home, accessories and bridal goods that Anthro does so well.
