Parisian fashion diva Lola Rykiel — granddaughter of Sonia Rykiel, of Target fame — has picked up a New York City pad at the spanking-new 250 Bowery for $1.725 million. Rykiel, who manages public relations for her grandmother’s renowned couture and prêt-à-porter labels, bought a two-bedroom, two-bathroom condominium at the eight-story new-construction building developed by VE Equities and designed by Morris Adjmi and Aldo Andreoli.

The apartment, which features a white chef’s kitchen, was listed for $1.695 million with Douglas Elliman’s Fredrik Eklund and John Gomes, according to the New York Post.
