About Pilot and Powell
On a bright, airy corner of Magazine Street surrounded by historic architecture and charming blocks peppered with restaurants and boutiques sits Pilot & Powell — an inviting space featuring an expertly-curated collection of clothing and accessories. Co-owners Kathryn Bullock Joyner and Coeli Hilferty Boron opened the luxury retail and lifestyle concept store in November 2016 and it has since become a mainstay in New Orleans's most vibrant shopping corridor.
With an eye for approachable luxury, contemporary classics, and hints of Southern polish Bullock and Hilferty aim to complement the modern woman's wardrobe. Together, they offer a wearable, interesting, and thought-provoking edit of the world’s most exciting brands. The freshly-edited range of classic designer apparel sits next to progressive contemporary sportswear and accessories. In-house alterations and a warm atmosphere round out Pilot and Powell’s successful one-stop-shop model.
Both Hilferty and Bullock bring over two decades of fashion retail experience and lend a unique lens that is well-suited for Pilot & Powell’s individualized shopping experience.
Pilot and Powell's second location is slated to open in Ardmore, PA in December 2023.
