Women's Clothing One of the things that the town of Stuart is known for is that it is a very walkable little central district full of restaurants and shops. For us, it is always a nice night out - grab dinner, do some browsing and grab dessert - but we tend to go later and most of the shops are closed. We had the recent good fortune to be able to hit town earlier than usual and had over an hour to kill before out dinner reservations, so we took that opportunity to actually visit some of the stores that were open. Island Cotton caught the eye of my wife it there were some funky cool dresses in the window and so we wandered in to take a look. The place is full of women's fashion items: dresses, blouses, jewelry, and sort of everything in between. My wife had a grand time looking through the racks and the super nice people working there were just great with no pressure at all. Turns out she found a really interesting skirt and tried it on - fit perfectly and decided then and there to wear it to dinner. One happy camper to be sure. Prices were pretty staggered - but they seem to have something for every budget range- I'm a guy and definitely not an expert in women's clothing so you may have to do some looking on your own to validate that. Overall a good experience and I am sure we will be back through there in the future on another night out. Parking - it is Stuart town so depending on the time of year, it could be tough. read more

There are a lot of women's clothing boutiques on this street in historic downtown Stuart. The Island Cotton Company opened in 2011 and specializes in cotton gauze clothing and accessories which are perfect for Florida humidity. They opened a second location in Tequesta in 2017. Island Cotton Company has a large selection of women tops, bottoms, skirts, dresses, layering pieces and accessories. The clothes are causal, comfortable, and colorful. They are designed for the resort lifestyle. Some of the jewelry is handcrafted by local artists. Prices are on the higher end, around $60 for a top, but during my visit they were having a 50 percent off sale. They also have a lot of cute gift items as well like soaps and lotions. I had a lot of fun going through their jewelry and handbags. Island Cotton Company is definitely worth a stop in downtown Stuart. read more

Pushy, pushy, pushy. I want to look around, ask questions if I have them, and get help when I need it. The woman working in this store hovered over me, kept taking things off the racks to see if I would like them, and kept bringing me things to try on when I was in the dressing room (I did not ask her to do that; I just wanted to try on the two items I found). I left. I will never go back. read more

This a great little gem in downtown Stuart! I love shopping here! The girls are awesome at finding me outfits for not only myself, but for friends and family that also shop there. If I forget what my favorite piece is called, they can look up my shopping history since I gave them my email address, and lead me in the right direction to new colors or new similar styles! So convenient! I love the cotton gauze clothing because it keeps me cooler in the Florida heat, and there are so many gorgeous colors to choose from! I visited the store again recently and there were so many cute new styles that are appealing to women of all ages. They always have really unique and funky jewelry and accessories, and I can spend a good amount of time looking and admiring it all. It's a must see and buy! read more

A Great store with a super friendly staff. My wife and daughter love this place.
