This month, avid shoppers, appreciators of shoes and lovers of fashion can rejoice – as Spanish high-end shoe brand Manolo Blahnik opens its first standalone store in Malaysia at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. It sits on 100 square meters space and features the dynamic and immersive Manolo Blahnik environment the brand’s standalone stores are known for. The opening is a part of an Asia expansion plan with luxury importer Bluebell, which includes the renovation of the Singapore store. Next year, customers and lovers of the brand can also expect to see the launch of a flagship store in Tokyo.

“Manolo Blahnik is a global brand, but with comparatively small distribution in Japan, Malaysia and Singapore,” said Kristina Blahnik, the International CEO of Manolo Blahnik. “With Bluebell now as our partners, we are excited about exploring and building the business in these regions and further territories. I have trust in their guidance and experience, and appreciate their company family values that resonate with our own.”

This new shopping space is designed by a long term collaborator of Manolo Blahnik’s for their store design – London-based Nick Leith-Smith Architecture + Design. Each store design and concept is one of its kind, so each store is distinctively unique each time – giving different shopping experiences to their customers. With this one, visitors and customers can walk into a ethereal and eccentric space that fuses modernity and nature.
Inspiration for this particular store was taken from the natural beauty of Malaysia, and how bamboo is an enduring beauty as an evergreen and as a locally sourced material used extensively in furniture and traditional architecture. Customers are able to immerse themselves in an abstract forest, in a space where natural elements meet imaginative design that reflects not only the artistry of Manolo Blahnik’s shoes, but also his style, humour and playfulness.

The store is located at 2.43.00, Level 2, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.
