One of the most sophisticated shopping concepts in the world, the Louis Vuittion Maison store, will be launching in Singapore on Sep 18. Designed by award-winning architect Peter Marino, LV’s first Island Maison will sit directly on water, with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the bay.
It will also feature a private lounge and outdoor loggia, as well as an art gallery tunnel of contemporary works leading directly to the Marina Bay Sands Mall .It will be a striking glass-and-steel Crystal Pavilion island that will sit on Marina Bay. Mr. David Sylvester, Vice President Retail Asia, Las Vegas Sands Corp, said, “This unique Louis Vuitton store at Marina Bay Sands speaks volumes about the visibility and credibility we have established in the retail community. Retailers recognize the quality of Marina Bay Sands which will attract high-level visitors from Singapore and beyond because of our winning combination of luxury brands, Celebrity Chef restaurants, a luxury hotel, a casino, expo and convention facilities, and world-class entertainment under one roof.”
Marina Bay Sands has secured commercial terms for close to 80 percent of its retail space. The company will open up to half of total retail space in the first quarter of 2010. With over 800,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space, Marina Bay Sands will be a destination by itself for shoppers from across the world. We will offer over 300 stores in a refreshing mix of international luxury brands and cutting-edge and emerging labels new to Singapore, as well as innovative entertainment including boat rides on an indoor canal.
