On Saturday evening in Millerton, 7 Dutchess, the new fashion-and-home-furnishings store run by Joan Osofsky of Hammertown Barn and Mimi Harney, had its official grand opening. Located on the side street across from The Moviehouse, 7 Dutchess carries the kind of stylish clothes that are just right for women who live in the country but don't want to dress like lumberjacks. The ambience is pure Hammertown, so you can sit down on a comfy sofa and browse through stacks of coffee table books before buying, say, a new set of Fishs Eddy dishes or one of the dramatic tables made from old industrial pieces by Tim Jones of Stissing Design.
