It’s time for retail therapy! Super fashionable, Rue Antoine Dansaert is one higher-end street shoppers shouldn’t miss.
The Dansaert neighbourhood of Brussels is a hotspot for fashionistas. There’s all the clothes brands you already know, plus Belgian designer boutiques waiting for you. Get your card ready for all the stylish pieces you’re sure to find. The whole street is about 850 m and quite long. If you speed walk, you could probably window shop the whole thing in under 20 minutes. But once you see something in the window, you won’t be able to resist the urge to go inside.
Not too long ago, the street was just fashion. Now there’s a bit more variety. Once, it was mostly luxury brands. But the world of fashion is changing and Rue Antoine Dansaert does reflect that. Walk on over to see its beautiful shops and architecture to discover the fashion mood of Brussels.
