The owner of a hipster kids’ boutique empire, which counts Hillary Clinton among its customers, was busted for shoplifting beauty products and other loot from a Brooklyn Whole Foods store last month, according to police.
Police collared Area Kids czar Loretta Gendville, 42, around 10 pm on Feb. 10 after she and Shepherd Lantz allegedly swiped $1,149 worth of music, beauty products, clothes, and food from the market’s Gowanus outpost, a police report said.
They were c🍰aught in the act and someone inside the store workers called the cops.
The Carroll Gardens pair’s haul also included 67 separate “heathcare” items totaling $615, cops said.
Area Kids has five st💧ores around Brooklyn, where it sells $24 onesies emblazoned with the L train bullet. Clinton was spotted buying a $30 dress for her granddaughter at the💖 Brooklyn Heights location in 2015.
Gendville and Lantz are due in court on May 1.
