Toves Galleri
A 220 meter indoor shopping arcade running between Vesterbrogade and Mattheusgade, with an interesting mix of stores, there are a few of the usual high-street suspects though.
Designer Zoo
DZOO is a working design store, based on a community of eight designers, which also sell designs made by a row of other Danish handcraft designers.
If you like to breeze through small shops, that you don't see on every corner at high streets across the western world, Vesterbro is an excellent place to go shopping, there is a wide range independent fashion and design stores offering local brands, from the traditional Danish design industry, and the up and coming Danish fashion industry.
A good shopping tour of the district 3000 meters starts at Vesterport station, turn west along Gammel Kongevej until you reach Tullinsgade which is the 8th street on your left. Turn down Tullinsgade until it reaches Værnedamsvej - tour both streets as they are full of interesting stores, at the southern end of Værnedamsvej turn right to the left side of the Europæiske building along Vesterbrogade and follow it for some 180 meters, until you reach Tove's Galleri an indoor shopping arcade with a big red gate out in front, head all the way through the arcade until you reach the other side at Mattheusgade, make a right, and turn left at the end of the street along Enghavevej. When you reach the square, turn down Istedgade and follow it until it ends at the Central station. Keep your eyes open, some of the best stores are easy to miss.

Sommerlund
Owner has returned from a long stay in LA, to start this store which mainly specializes in party dresses, but also has regular women's fashion and some shoes.
Used to be the red light district, and while it still has more than its fair share of sorry souls, it has blossomed up during the last 10 years. At the end of the street nearest to central station, there is still the last sorry remains of the once so famous sex stores, not really that exciting, but they are fairly well stocked if you want to spice up your sex life, and there are two stores especially catering to gays, if you are from a less tolerant society, where these don't hang on trees. The real attraction these days though, are the numerous small fashion stores dotted along the length of street.
