Architectural Digest, which I had never heard of until this moment, recently featured the Holy City in an article entitled “Where to Shop, Stay, and Dine in Charleston, South Carolina.”
Many local hotspots and events are mentioned including: Spoleto, the upcoming Antiques Show, Charleston Place, Zero George, Restoration on King, Husk, The Grocery, The Macintosh, The Ordinary, Gibbes Museum of Art, Drayton Hall (left), Heirloom Book Co., Indigo & Cotton and more.
The article accurately describes Charleston from the start:
