It’s a common misconception that men aren’t interested in fashion. The truth is, the selection of men’s clothing is much smaller than women’s, and so is the number of boutiques that carry it. In our community, House of Katia is stepping in to fill the gap, extending their full service retail experience to men. “A Gentleman in Style” is a line of bespoke attire that delivers a sharp, custom-made fit for every occasion in men’s lives. For those outside the fashion industry, bespoke means tailor-made to the individual client. House of Katia also offers personal styling services, carefully curating clients’ style from head-to-toe.
To promote “A Gentleman in Style,” and create space for stylish men to come together in community, House of Katia is holding a monthly Men’s Night. The event is sponsored by other local brands for men, including International Cigar Factory, SoNo 1420, and Total Wines & More, so guests can enjoy complimentary spirits. House of Katia has released a few select styles for you to preview online, but you’ll have to visit the store to get the full picture!

House of Katia is back and better than ever at 12 Main St, in the heart of Norwalk’s popular Wall Street District. It took about a year to find the new space and roughly six months to renovate it. House of Katia is now 1,200 square feet, which is enough space to offer clients full-service retail therapy, with some leftover for entertaining. The entertainment space will feature artists, painters, authors, wine tastings and networking events.
“I couldn’t believe how my clients had missed me so much! We probably had about 80 to 85 people at the grand re-opening!” – Katia Garçon, Owner

Medical micro-pigmentation of the areola and nipple constitutes the final point of breast reconstruction after a mastectomy for breast cancer.
The areola and nipple consists of a tattoo that, unlike the usual ones, is made on the skin at a lower depth and using an anesthetic ointment. In it, brown and red tones are used that imitate the color of the areolas and look for a harmonious result with the skin of the patient.
Every 2 months, Jime’s Nails & Spa provides this procedure to one breast cancer survivor FREE of charge.
For Jimena, giving back to the community is the most rewarding work.
Contact Jimena at (407) 9905270 for more information.
La micro-pigmentación médica de la areola y el pezón constituye el punto final de la reconstrucción mamaria tras una masectomía por cáncer de mama.
La areola y pezón consiste en un tatuaje que, a diferencia de los habituales, se hace en la piel a menor profundidad y usando una pomada anestésica. En él, se emplean tonos marrones y rojizos que imitan el color de las areolas y buscan un resultado armónico con la piel de la paciente.
Cada 2 meses, Jime’s Nails & Spa realiza este procedimiento a una sobreviviente de cáncer de seno sin cargo alguno.
Para Jimena, el retribuir a la comunidad con su trabajo, es el trabajo más gratificante.
Contacte Jimena al (407) 9905270 para más información.
