After closing its Marina Bay Sands doors for an enlargement and upgrade this month, Chanel Singapore is meanwhile offering a pop-up boutique at The Shoppes.

Its first standalone “ephemeral boutique” in Singapore will be open until the end of October, with the new-look boutique re-opening in November.

Not just be a mere pop-up store, the temporary boutique features the Paris Cosmopolite 2016/17 Métiers d’Art read-to-wear collection covering 3000 sqft (280 sqm), with inspiration drawn from the Ritz Paris, a favourite of the label’s founder, Gabrielle Chanel, and also the location designer Karl Lagerfeld chose to debut the collection.
