While COVID-19 may have caused a surge in online shopping, the luxury market is constantly reinventing and innovating the in-store experience to remain relevant. One example is BELOWGROUND, Hongkong Land’s latest experience-led retail initiative, combining luxury, fashion, culture, and art in a 6,000 square-foot space.
With a mission to “break the boundaries of contemporary retail”, this new concept at the basement of Landmark Atrium features a rotating curation of brands that will entice any fashion lover. From streetwear, eyewear, watches and gadgets to shoes, furniture, plus art and antiques, here are a few of the brands and stores in the inaugural mix to check out:
