A Few Stores to Look Forward To
December 18, 2011
Last year I blogged about some concept stores that were popping up…and here are a few more to look out for!
For Clothing – Ann Taylor’s been revamping, rolling out concept stores nationwide that feature private lounges, touch screen monitors with access to AnnTaylor.com and personal stylists to serve customers in each store.
For Accessory Addicts – Victoria’s Secret may be broadening its horizons; the brand just opened a beauty & accessories-only shop in China, featuring VS branded luggage, leather goods & more.
For Luxe Lovers – Fivestory is a highly anticipated boutique set to open on Manhattan’s Upper East Side in February, featuring splurge-worthy brands new to the US market (e.g. Victoria Beckham & Cushnie et Ochs)
For Fast Food Fans – Burger King has launched an upscale “Garden Grill” in Singapore, complete with comfy sofas & fancy decor. Hm!
And last but not least – Starbucks has plans to offer beer & wine in several of its shops. There are also plans for new cafes that will serve small plates of food in addition to alcohol.
