7 of the best concept shops in Amsterdam

Amsterdam has a great shopping scene with everything from affordable clothing brands to the biggest brand names the fashion industry has to offer. However, there are a lot of interesting concept shops, which are an innovative take on traditional physical stores. Concept stores are places where curators and retailers can sell specific products and services that all relate back to a specific theme or concept.
