Swedish brand & Other Stories opens a physical store in Singapore
Since launching in March 2013, & Other Stories has gained a cult following for its wide range of women’s fashion — from slinky party dresses to fashion-forward shoes and accessories. The Swedish brand has finally landed in Singapore with its first physical store in Southeast Asia, launching with its vibrant summer collections.
With 560 square metres of space, the ION Orchard store marks the first of many planned openings in the region. Another & Other Stories store is already in the works and is slated to open at Raffles City Shopping Centre in spring 2023. For those who prefer the convenience of shopping online, this launch also marked the official partnership between the brand and Zalora for customers in Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines.
Khaite collaborates with Dover Street Market
New York-based fashion brand Khaite is favoured among the fashion cognoscenti for its elevated classics and undeniably chic aesthetic. It’s subtle cool-girl flair has culminated with an in-store collaboration with Dover Street Market Singapore.
For now through 13 September, the Khaite x Dover Street Market installation — designed by Griffin Frazen — will display a selection of seven looks from the brand’s autumn/winter 2022 collection. The pieces are also available for pre-order through Dover Street Market Singapore during the duration of the installation.
There’s now a Burberry manga issue
Burberry’s Lola bag has been turned into a manga character by Tsubasa Yamaguchi, based on her award-winning series Blue Period. The collaboration between the two comes in the form of a limited-edition Burberry-inspired issue with a specially conceptualised storyline that introduces a character named Lola.
Embodying the spirit of the Lola bag — bold, strong, and an individual — the new character interacts with Blue Period‘s Yatora and Ryuji, with the former especially connecting with her personality.
A physical issue of the collaboration is only available in Burberry stores in Japan. But a digital copy is now available on the Burberry site.
