Easy, tigresses, there's plenty for everyone
Hell’s bells, gals, are you going to get seriously moist at this post or what. Glamorous Hong Kong department store Lane Crawford has opened a stupendous 25,000 sq ft Shoe Library in its Tsim Sha Tsui flagship, lined with footwear and accessories from just about every designer you’ve dreamed about. It’s like all your Christmases have come at once, and with Christmas itself just around the corner, guys, you have zero excuse for not finding a present here. We’re talking over 200 brands and counting: Chloé, Alaïa, McQueen, Lanvin, Givenchy, McCartney, Blahnik, Louboutin, Alexander Wang, Pedro Garcia, Tory Burch, you name it, and there’s even a dedicated children’s shoe corner. Sometimes, it’s best just to let the pictures tell the story, so browse, dear readers, and weep.

'Ello sailor
From catwalk to high street, everybody is sporting sailor stripes this season, and Hong Kong, never one to miss a trend, is no exception. Doing it better than most, is concept store Kapok’s curators of cool, who’ve sailed across Victoria Harbour to Kowloon with their new nautically themed store, Sailor. Just in time for junk season, too. Now, where’s Roger, the cabin boy?
Just hanging around
OMG, squeal! The most darling nursery-loft in town, Petit Bazaar, just got bigger and better with a new, candy colourburst of a flagship in bustling Wan Chai on Hong Kong Island. With 3,000 square feet of space spread over two floors, this “kids’ concept store” stocks just about anything your precious petits chéris could ever want. Are they going to be spoilt or what?
Dear hearts, LUXE has teamed with the darlings at The Independent, one of the UK’s leading newspapers, to bring you a regular retail column of the chicest shopping in our fave cities. And where better to start your shopfest than in LUXE’s home city, Hong Kong.
Read what’s in store here, and pick up a Hong Kong guide while you’re at it. Purses out!
