The Simone Rocha store in Hong Kong recently opened its doors to consumers.
The presentation of the space is grandiose as it mixes intended minimalism with striking and attention-captivating motifs. While the garments by Simone Rocha themselves are enough of a decor element to the elegant brick-and-mortar location, the label's in-house team attempts to amplify this.
Among the sophisticated offerings and the ornamentally textured ceilings, visitors of the Simone Rocha store can marble at some breathtaking artworks by Francis Bacon and Ren Ri. While the illustrations of the former adorn the walls of the space, the sculptural honeycomb by Ren Ri occupies the middle of the room and serves as a centerpiece.
With an ethos rooted in art, the Simone Rocha store provides "a chance for people to engage with the clothes physically and really understand the fabrications and embellishment."
