Duchess of Lakeway Opens in Lake Travis: Get Your Shop On

Written by Cathy Hale | September 16, 2014

Maria & Kyndal’s sister store, Duchess of Lakeway opened its doors on August 11, giving Lake Travis fashionistas another reason to shop. While Duchess boasts the same sophisticated yet fun, beachy vibe as Maria & Kyndal’s, the price point is lower, making it the perfect destination for cost-conscious customers.

This highly anticipated opening generated a big buzz in Austin because so many Lake Travis area residents are already such loyal shoppers at Maria & Kyndal’s in Westlake and Lakeway. Maria Harrington, who brought her boutique concept to Austin from Memphis a few years ago, has always been deeply passionate about the fashion industry and it shows. When LT gals heard they could get even more bang for their buck at Duchess, they started making room in their closets.
