For starters, the boutique has two individual and contiguous storefronts; one leads into a room containing the women’s collection, the other to the men’s. Connected internally, each space has a distinct decor: Marble and plaster in a classical vein for her; blue lacquer for him, as well as a brass-topped bar bar intended for all clients. Shoe shopping and smoothies sound like a winning combination.
The new collection for fall is a head-turning one despite the extraordinary circumstances under which it was made. “Sometimes it was as if my head was going to explode, but I did the collection...and it’s some of [the] best stuff that I’ve done— things without restraint, completely,” Blahnik says. “I never change very much, I do not follow fashion at all, but somehow I do explode sometimes in the sense of like, why not? And this time I [designed] in that way.
