This store opened as a concept store of KATHARINE HAMNETT and is the only street level store from this brand name designer. The shop consists of a Library in which books and sundries are displayed by the book director Yoshitaka Haba who pays attention to every detail including book selection and arrangement, a Salon corner where customers can order specially customized suits sewed in Japan and a Select corner which offers an original line-up differing from other locations including items only available at this location.
It is also possible to reserve items before they arrive at the shop as well as receive and pay for ordered items online. This place is garnering attention for showing how to thrive as a new type of store during the online shopping era.
