Mall Rats! You are now officially in the KNOW and do say that you heard it here!
Zen and Knightsbridge are two NEW noteworthy malls that you should definitely suss out ... yes in the midst of the raging recession (which by my personal observation, very few seemed to be concerned about)
FIND ZEN IN BANGKOK
Once you feel safe enough to pack your bags for Bangkok, you should head to ZEN, touted as Asia's Number 1 Premier Lifestyle Mega-Store.
Zen is located in downtown Bangkok next to CentralWorld, surrounded by 5-star hotels, luxury condominiums and international brand-name boutiques.
Already well known for its international fashion mix, Zen was recently expanded into 80,000 square metres of space featuring 7 floors of the world's most fashionable and innovative merchandise. Find apparel, accessories, home ware and beyond basic lifestyle goods and Zen World, an adjoining 12-storey tower with fitness centres, health and beauty spas, and the city’s coolest eating and drinking venues.
What you can expect from the new shopping experience:
Level 1 is dedicated to 'The Beauty of Luxury', with international designer names, luxury watches and jewelry, and the best in skincare and cosmetics.
Level 2 features 'Women’s Elegance' with contemporary fashion complemented by fine and costume jewelry, shoes and handbags.
Level 3 has the much feted Thai Designer Gallery and 'Casual Women' category with fun fashion to urban attire and the city best selections of lingerie and intimate wear.
Levels 4 and 5 are for hip guys, from the swankiest suits for the boardroom to the funkiest footwear for clubbing, complemented by urban fashion for city slickers at 'Funky Edgy ZEN'. Not to be missed is the ZEN Denim Gallery, the city’s premium jeans outlet.
Level 6 features 'Active Lifestyle, be it a book, a new digital gadget or something decorative for the home. It also incorporates the inimitable Muji store.
Level 7 is for discerning home owners. 'No Better Place Than Home' on this level showcases the most complete offering of everything you need in every corner of your tasteful habitat.
KNIGHTSBRIDGE, RIGHT HERE AT HOME!
Here at home, head to Knightsbridge (yes you read correctly)! Knightsbridge on Orchard Road, to be precise.
This flagship retail concept located in a chic four-storey retail podium is scheduled to open in the first half of next year at 270 Orchard Road.
It will offer 83,000 sq ft of luxury shopping integrated within an S$80 million makeover of the former Park Hotel Orchard - currently being renovated and re-branded as a 5-star hotel.
Named after London's most fashionable address, Knightsbridge promises timeless chic and classic style. The dazzling exterior of the hotel includes a herringbone-designed glass façade and will incorporate a dramatic eight-storey tall media wall.
I wonder what that will do to the already terrible traffic situation along that stretch. Go figure!
