Giuseppe Zanotti has made its official foray into Singapore with the opening of a brand new boutique inside the ION Orchard mall.

In partnership with local retail specialist Valiram, the Italian luxury shoemaker has opened a 108-square-metre premium retail space inside the iconic Singapore mall. The boutique’s interior design features chrome and gold surfaces mixed with yellow and blue fabric on the floor and furniture, set against white walls and mirror finishings.

It's a "refined and contemporary mood, which enhances the brand’s creations for a luxury shopping experience," according to a press release.

The concept store houses the brand’s latest shoe collection, as well as sneakers and leather handbags and accessories for both men and women. A limited collection of children’s shoes will be introduced specifically for the boutique launch, said the Malaysia-based Valiram, who first brought the luxury brand to Malaysia a decade ago.

"Valiram is passionate about creativity and craftsmanship, a combination that Giuseppe Zanotti is renowned for. We have been partners with this creative force, who has crafted the most iconic shoes for some of the world’s most famous feet, for close to 10 years now in Malaysia and we are excited to celebrate the continuation of our relationship with a footprint in Singapore”, said Valiram executive director Mukesh Valiram.

Valiram’s partnership with the Italian luxury footwear and fashion designer started in 2007 when the Malaysian-based luxury and lifestyle retail specialist opened the first Giuseppe Zanotti boutique in Malaysia at premier retail landmark Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.

In Asia, Valiram also oversees retail operations for Jimmy Choo, Kate Spade, Dunhill and Hugo Boss, among several other international luxury fashion, accessories and beauty brands.
