Lucky me! Best shop on Meir -- and it's a newcomer to the scene!…read more I had no idea Juttu had opened literally the day before I arrived to Antwerp (mid-November 2015) -- it was only when I was adding the information to Yelp that I realized I went on day 2 of their existence. Points for great timing, I suppose. Juttu was my favorite store on this mega shopping strip, Meir. Everything else felt like a variation on the same thing, same style, same price point. It seems like millions of shops and then you realize "samesies" mostly. Juttu definitely stands out -- it's a Belgium original, with 2 locations (this one and Brugge). Really cool style, great curation, a bit more high end, really lovely stuff. I walked out with a gorgeous cardigan sweater (80 euro) and my new favorite pair of beaded earrings (25 euro). Not crazy pricy, but very high quality. It's like Belgian Anthropologie, but better. Highly recommended. They were working out some of the opening jitters when we were there (checkout ques were a bit unorganized) but I think this place is a sure win once it gets that sorted. It's already looking fabulous and upping the shopping bar on Meir.
