ARTC FASHIONIt’s no surprise that Artsi Ifrach’s theatrical designs—ornately embroidered tunics, coats reworked from vintage Berber carpets—have been shown at Paris couture week. Although his prices are steep, it’s worth a trip to his atelier in the Gueliz district just to marvel at the creations of this self-taught master. art-c-fashion.com

MARRAKSHI LIFE Fashion photographer Randall Bachner left New York City in 2013 to open a tiny men’s shop deep in the medina. Working with local weavers and tailors, he gives a breezy surfer vibe to standard caftans, oxford shirts, and linen babouches. There’s also a selection of women’s clothing and accessories in the casually decorated store. fb.com/ marrakshilife

33 RUE MAJORELLELocated opposite Yves Saint Laurent’s Jardin Majorelle, this concept shop showcases

designers who offer a spin on traditional craftwork. You’ll find babouche slippers in handsome jacquard prints, tribal-design rugs made from hemp and denim, and the ubiquitous Moroccan tea set rendered in elegant recycled glass. There are also coffee-table books, an exhibition space featuring Moroccan artists, and a café and juice bar. fb.com/33rue majorelle

CHABI CHICCall it Marrakesh’s answer to Sur La Table—this housewares shop is full of modern updates on Moroccan pottery. Instead of arabesque patterns, you’ll find graphic stripes on tagines, cups, and serving platters. There are also Berber baskets, olive-wood kitchen utensils, and bags of herbs, from mint tea to harira-soup kits. There are two locations in the city, but the best selection is at the warehouse-size space in Sidi Ghanem, the city’s ever-gentrifying industrial zone. chabi-chic.com
