It is designed like a 1940s boutique with its palette of ivory, pale rose and sand; mother of pearl finishes; satin boiserie wall paneling; and crystal drop chandeliers. “I want it to feel as though you are walking into a lady’s dressing room, a woman’s boudoir.” says Tamara Mellon, Jimmy Choo president and founder. It’s a very welcome upgrade from the Takashimaya store opened two years ago when Jimmy Choo first set foot in Singapore. Jimmy Choo, recipient of the 2008 ‘Designer Brand of the Year’ award from the British Fashion Council, first entered the fashion bible in 1995 thanks to Mellon, a then-British Vogue accessories editor. Choo, a Malaysian, had counted the likes of Princess Diana as one of his rich clients. Mellon has since then bought out Jimmy Choo, but kept his name for the company. The Malaysian designer still makes haute couture shoes and is said to be contemplating opening a shoe school in Malaysia. Jimmy Choo is one of two shoe brands that often pepper conversations of the Sex and the City The Paragon store opening is being celebrated with Kristelle, a limited edition sandal (only one pair per size) available in two colours: gunmetal pixelated leather and metallic gold nappa. (see photo above) It combines crystals and pearls on a platform with a four inch heel, epitomizing the glamour of the Jimmy Choo woman. The prize: $2339. The new flagship store showcases an extensive selection of Jimmy Choo shoes, handbags, small leather goods, sunglasses. It is the only store in the region with a complete bridal shoe collection. “The strategic location of boutique within a premium mall further reinstates Jimmy Choo as a luxury shoe maker. We believe the Singapore market welcomes a new boutique by this super iconic luxury brand synonymous with the ‘red carpet’, style and glamour,” says Mr. Ashvin Valiram, director of Valiram Group, which operates the Singapore boutiques as well as freestanding stores in Malaysia and Australia. The Paragon store coincides with a period of worldwide expansion for the brand; with recent store launches in prime locations such as Paris Rue Saint Honore, Rome Via Condotti, Barcelona, Cannes, Munich, and Tokyo Ginza, joining well established locations in cities such as London, New York and Beverly Hills. The new Jimmy Choo boutique is located at Paragon #01-10.

The Habitue Launches Ocean & Earth’s New Summer Collection
To combat the dearth of exciting and innovative surf- and beach-wear in the region, The Habitue was formed to bring in alternative and coveted surf- and beach-wear brands from all across the globe. The Habitue embraces the passionately-relaxed lifestyle of surfers and beach-goers, drawing from the passion of supporters and visitors to the site. The Habitue hopes to create a site and culture whereby all visitors will be habitues, and thus make a difference in the surf- and beach-wear fashion scene for the whole of Asia.
Ocean & Earth (O&E) started off producing a couple of basic surfing products with a staff of 3 in 1978. With the success of those products, O&E grew, establishing a network of retailers in its native Australia to cover the main surfing areas. By the early eighties, O&E started export sales.
