Places of interest
Friseur Furfrou
A shop that specializes in Furfrou grooming. The player may buy a trim for a Furfrou in their party for $500. Trims last for five days or until the Furfrou is deposited in the PC. The shop initially only offers Star, Diamond, or Heart Trims (as well as the option to return it to a natural look), but as the player gains style, more trims become available. At 10 points of style, the La Reine, Kabuki, and Pharaoh Trims become available, while the Debutante, Matron, and Dandy Trims are available at 50 points of style.

Herboriste
A specialty shop that sells herbal medicines. Buying items at this shop will increase the player's style.
Stone Emporium
A specialty shop that sells Evolution stones. A man in the store will offer to sell the player the remaining Mega Stones for the two Kantofirst partner Pokémon they did not receive from Professor Sycamore. The price of these Mega Stones begins at $1,000,000 but will decrease as the player becomes more stylish, eventually being available for only $10,000. After entering the Hall of Fame, the owner will first offer the Mega Stone for the Kanto first partner Pokémon that is super effective against the one chosen by the player.

A designer fashion and luxury boutique. The first floor sells only women's clothing, whereas the second floor sells only men's clothing. The player is only granted access to the boutique once they have at least 25 points of style. The clothes and accessories sold here have much higher prices than those sold at other boutiques across Kalos.

Lumi Cab is a taxi service that lets the player travel between many stops around Lumiose City for a fee; destinations that are farther away cost more. If the player has enough style, the fare will be half price. If the player does not have enough money to pay for the ride, the driver will challenge them to a battle.
From Vernal Avenue, fares range from $710 to $3,500 before any discount.
Within Lumiose City, the player has a degree of style which can be raised by doing things around the city. If the player has a high style, prices may be lower, more items and services may be offered, and certain establishments may be accessible that were not before.
The effects of style on this street are noted in the sections above.
Non-player characters
In addition to the above benefits, some NPCs will change their dialogue as the player's style increases, and several new NPCs will appear in various places (mostly cafés) around the city as well. On Vernal Avenue, at 25 points of style, more people will appear in Cafés Classe and Woof, and at 50 points of style, more people will appear in Boutique Couture.

Trivia
In the Stone Emporium, an old man says, "Ore, ore, ore... Ores that I adore! Ah, this is where you should laugh...", heavily suggesting that he is the ore maniac from Black, White, Black 2, and White 2, who says the same thing when met for the first time.
