Top-of-the-line
designer clothing
and accessories
have been the
alluring draw at
Àpropos.
Fashionable evening bags are among the many offerings that have attracted clientele to Àpropos.
Over the next year, she remodeled the fixerupper
into the beautiful building that she
named Àpropos. After her year of renovations,
she went to fashion market in California
to line up top designers to supply her with
merchandise for her new store.
Since the opening of Àpropos in 1974, Patti
pursued her dream and became a mecca for
fashionable women throughout the Tampa
Bay area. Unfortunately, the time has come for
her to retire, and she is planning on closing
this shop, where customers sipped beverages
as they enjoyed the creativity of the Àpropos
environment of antiques and top-of-the-line
designer clothes and accessories.
Patricia says she is retiring, but knowing her,
there will be a next venture, and you can be
sure it will be something wonderful.
