Fodor's Expert Review La France
Editor's Note: This location is reported to be under new ownership and therefore this review may contain inaccuracies.
One of the landmark vintage shops in the Tampa Bay area, La France stocks such items as antique beaded wedding gowns, psychedelic mini-dresses, and period costumes that will make you a hit should you sport one at the Gasparilla Pirate Fleet parade. If you're in any way a vintage clothing buff, prepare to spend a solid couple of hours (and a good chunk of change) here.
