    Christian Dior opens its largest boutique in China

    Designed by American architect Peter Marino, the two-level store reflects the timeless elegance of Dior, with a double-layer glass façade that emulates the iconic “cannage” motif of the couture house. Inside, the refined atmosphere is enhanced by wall art and designer pieces, part of a curated selection of a dozen contemporary art pieces.

    To celebrate the opening of the Dior Beijing China World flagship, the House presented its Spring-Summer 2016 collection at a runway show in a sumptuous blue-hued setting at the Phoenix Center. The show was attended by Christian Dior Couture CEO Sydney Toledano and A-list Chinese celebrities and artists.

    Apple’s location for its official Singapore store confirmed?

    Apple’s location for its first official store in Singapore might be confirmed in a press release… that was not released by Apple.

    The announcement started innocently enough: fitness chain Pure Fitness issued a statement saying it will be closing its branch in Knightsbridge, a distinctive retail building in Singapore. Oddly, it mentions in passing that “Pure and other tenants will be handing back space to make way for the opening of a new Apple store in late 2016.”

    We can only guess why Pure Fitness talked about Apple in the press release.knightsbridge

    Earlier, an email was apparently sent out to Pure Fitness customers stating the same news:

    Apple has been seeking a retail space in Singapore for some time. We are reaching out to the company for comment.
