WHere is the difference to shop=clothes? --!i! 14:35, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

boutiques aren't regular clothes shops and don't just sell clothes... --JohnSmith 16:42, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
So what you think about? What brands are more boutiques than clothes shops for example? --!i! 20:42, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
In India we call boutiques as "Fancy shops" a simple english usage for the shop 'which sells the items which a teenage girl fancies' some of the items are ribbons,pins ,stickers(replacing bhindi on forehead),hair bands etc . --Pavi 00:13, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Namespaces

How about creating a namespace like
clothes:sales=yes;used
clothes:repair=yes
clothes:rental=no
clothes:type=vintage;fashion;work;sports;mens;womens;childrens;lingerie
(the same for shoes:* / furniture:* and others)
?

I think Pavi is right these are "fancy" shops
which may also sell other items than clothes,
so a namespace would be good to express exactly what they offer.

This way it's not that important what the shop is named (boutique/clothes/fashion or others),
you may anyway find what you're looking for, even if it's sold by a supermarket.
