A FEW DAYS LEFT........CLUB MONACO POP UP STORE

 

Okay I admit, it's a little late to post  a story about Club Monaco's Pop Up Store in Hong Kong, as it opened already on September 15, 2012 and will run through June 2013. I came across these pictures recently and I couldn't get my eyes off it, there is so much to see. (pics via Hypebeast)

If you have a stop over for your vacation in Hong Kong this month pay them a visit @ Shop No. 4B, Upper Ground Floor, Bo Fung Mansion, Nos. 1-4 St. Francis Yard, Wanchai.

IN DA CLUB MONACO

Club Monaco, recently opened it's new store concept in Toronto. As you all know Club Monaco is a part of the Ralph Lauren Company. With it's new concept it takes a step in the direction of J.Crew. Not just the interior, but also the visual merchandise has been influenced by the men's stores of J.Crew.

The highlight of the men's shop was the launch of the Made in the USA collection curated by Michael Williams of A Continuous Lean. Man do I like the staircase with the grey panelling and art.
