A reference page documenting a Hicksville, New York clothing boutique and what its public listings showed.
This page documents Vastra Boutique, a clothing store that was listed at 535 S Broadway, Suite 215 B&C, in Hicksville, New York. The Google business listing for the boutique showed a 4.8 rating and now marks the business as closed. Everything below is drawn from that listing and the boutique's public social profiles, and nothing here is published on the boutique's behalf.
The core record is a Google business card titled 'Vastra Boutique,' categorized as a clothing store. The card gives the address 535 S Broadway, Suite #215 B&C, Hicksville, NY 11801, and the phone number +1 516-652-8399. Notably, the listing's URL field points not to a dedicated website but to the Instagram account @vastraclothing, which suggests the boutique ran its online presence primarily through social media rather than a standalone domain.
The listing was marked as claimed, meaning someone had taken ownership of it through Google's verification process, and it carried a rating of 4.8 out of 5. At the time this record was compiled, the listing's business status read 'closed.' This page repeats those fields exactly as documented and adds nothing beyond them: no prices, no staff names, no review excerpts, and no claims about current operations.
The Instagram bio linked from the listing described the business as 'a couture boutique for rental and custom made women's clothing' in Long Island, NY, and displayed the same phone number that appears on the Google card. That pairing of rental and custom work is a recognizable model in South Asian occasion wear, where an elaborate garment is often needed for a single wedding or festival and renting or commissioning made-to-measure pieces is standard practice.
A Facebook page for 'Vastra Boutique' in Hicksville described the shop as high-end Indian fashion and jewelry and referred to lehengas and sarees in its posts, which also promoted the boutique's outfits and occasional sales. Taken together, the two profiles sketch a small boutique focused on Indian ethnic wear for women, combining ready pieces, made-to-order garments, and rentals under one roof.
'Vastra' is a Sanskrit word meaning cloth or garment, and it remains in everyday use in Hindi and other Indian languages. It is a common choice of name for Indian clothing businesses, which is why unrelated stores in different cities and countries can share it without any connection. The word's breadth — it can mean anything from a length of fabric to formal dress — makes it a natural fit for a boutique.
Hicksville is a hamlet in Nassau County on Long Island, and its South Broadway corridor is known for a concentration of South Asian grocery stores, restaurants, jewelers, and clothing shops serving the region's large Indian American community. A boutique offering lehenga and saree rentals fits that retail landscape: customers could shop locally for occasion wear that might otherwise require a trip to Queens or New Jersey, or a risky overseas order placed sight unseen.
A 4.8 rating is strongly positive, but the listing data available here does not include the number of reviews behind it, so the figure should be read as a snapshot rather than a measure of scale. Small boutiques often accumulate high averages from a modest base of reviewers, and the rating alone says nothing about how many customers the business served or over what period those reviews were left.
The 'closed' status is the most consequential field in the record. Google allows owners or members of the public to flag a business as closed, and the flag is not always updated promptly in either direction. Anyone trying to confirm whether the boutique still operates in some form should check the Instagram account it linked to or call the listed number, since those were the business's own documented channels.
Search results for the boutique's name also surface other ventures, including one called 'Vastra Official' that describes handcrafted suits, sarees, and dupattas in fabrics such as Maheshwari, Organza, and Muslin. There is no documented connection between that operation and the Hicksville storefront, and the shared name reflects the word's popularity in the trade rather than any proven relationship.
Because 'vastra' is a generic word for clothing, anyone researching a specific business should anchor on the details that do not travel: the Hicksville address, the 516 area code phone number, and the @vastraclothing handle. Those three identifiers, taken together, distinguish the Long Island boutique documented here from namesakes elsewhere in the United States and abroad.
