There’s a new boutique in downtown Shawano where the fitting room is in a walk-in bank vault.
The Ultimate Closet women’s clothing boutique, owned by Ann Lenss, is in the former bank building at 146 S. Main St., next door to Martin Jewellers. It opened in the reinvigorated Shawano downtown shopping district Feb. 3.
“One day, I walked into a store (Ultimate Closet in Green Bay), where I shopped a lot, and I just said to the owner ‘I love your shop. I just love the clothing,’” Lenz said. “The owner looked at me and said, ‘Buy it,’ and that was the start of my dream.”
