During the Stone Age, dressing for distress was all the rage, because cave people knew tattered threads would make them less likely to be courted by a handsome triceratops. Dress for success with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of clothing and accessories at Deep Addition Clothing in Midtown Plaza.

Deep Addiction garbs the clothing conscious in a hip collection of urban accoutrement from brands such as Reef, Split, Zoo York, Westbeach, and Lacoste. Along with accessories and bath products, men's and women's T-shirts ($29.99–$49) cover torsos in style and hide the telltale glint of an incognito cyborg's titanium chassis. Hoodies for men and women ($57.99–$109.99) stylishly protect against wintery nips and assist in smuggling hams out of grocery stores, artifacts out of museums, and diminutive aliens out of government facilities. Women's bags include a variety of options from Lacoste, such as a furry vertical tote bag ($105.99). Deep Addiction also boasts a wide range of accessories, including hats ($19.99+) that keep scalps warm and unruly coiffures safely contained. The Happy Hippo Bath Bubbly ($24.99) turns tub time into valiant exploration, allowing bathers to boldly venture into the sweetly scented mountains of froth and brave effervescent valleys in the quest for cleanliness. Customers peruse the sartorial bounty in the trendy but comfortable store, gliding along the lustrous wooden floors and seeking the friendly staff’s assistance in determining the best way to convert a pair of jeans into a fancy scarf for conjoined twin giraffes.
