Hermes: Sport arena

All my friends know that I love Hermes so much and they always send me the latest Hermes window boutique wherever they go around the world. A Japanese friend sent this series of photos last week from Ho Chi Minh City. Looking at this display in a glance, all Hermes fan can easily recognize the infamous women horn pendants inspiration behind it. This familiar shape is now going stripey and turn into a sport arena where bicycles and horses will compete each other. But, where is those bicycles and horses? Examine this photo closer and you can find that they are transparent. Excellent!

Hermes: Ribbons

Talking about luxury shopping in the South East Asia area, people will remember more of Singapore rather than Vietnam. However, Vietnam is now having all the big names of the luxury brands you ever know. One of them is Hermes that already had two boutiques, each in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, two major and main cities of this country. The one in HCMC is located at Vincom Cener A, a luxury shopping center with its beautiful French colonial style building inside the main district of the city. The window display of this boutique is surprisingly beautiful and creative. Ribbons become the main point of view of the main window area. They are flying and swirling around the, few, products displayed there. Hope one day I can visit this boutique by myself since the photos here were taken by my friend.

Luxury brands in Vietnam

 Ralph Lauren, Vincom Center A

 Dior, Vincom Center A

 Louis Vuitton, Vincom Center A

Finally I have a reason to visit Vietnam some day. My friend sent this photos of luxury boutiques in Ho Chi Minh City that make me curious about luxury business in this country. Louis Vuitton at the Opera View building might be the oldest brand that opens its door in this emerging country. Yet, nowadays it must face the competition with its LVMH brother brands or other groups'. A luxury shopping center called Vincom Center A is housing many fashion and jewelry brands, two of them are Dior and Ralph Lauren. The thing that makes me amaze about the Ralph Lauren boutique here is the availability of Ralph Lauren Collection gowns that I had seen on the runaway. We simply cannot ignore this city, or country, when talking about new wealth and luxury shopping heaven.
