EVENT<br />
This is the ideal place to bring a jaded<br />
anti-shopping partner as there are far<br />
more than just storefronts to view. While<br />
the brands on show will make you want to<br />
dress like a fashionista, you should wear<br />
comfortable walking shoes as there is more<br />
than 800,000 sq ft to cover.<br />
Many of the luxury fashion brands have<br />
a presence here. Seek out the Louis Vuitton<br />
Crystal Pavilion — a glass store fl oating on the<br />
waters of Marina Bay.<br />
Once the credit card is exhausted, there<br />
are more sights to behold — the celebrity chef<br />
restaurants and ArtScience Museum should<br />
keep everyone happy.<br />
IN FOCUS //<br />
International brands are clamouring<br />
to launch their latest flagship store<br />

SINGAPORE<br />
Singapore prides itself on being one of<br />
South-East Asia’s most developed cities.<br />
And that means there are plenty of places for<br />
well-heeled travellers to spend the big bucks.<br />
Commes des Garçons, Issey Miyake, Dries<br />
Van Noten and Balenciaga are just some of the<br />
brands that call this their Singaporean home.<br />
In this refi ned setting, browsing the wares of<br />
Alexander Wang and Marni will be enough<br />
to send your pulse (and your credit card debt)<br />
sky high.<br />
