Designed by an in-house design team, the flagship is a one-stop destination for The Editor Market’s offerings. The brand may be primarily known as a fashion label, but with this flagship it has definitely marked its transformation to a holistic lifestyle brand.

This flagship store physically encapsulates our transformation from a fashion retailer to a multifaceted fashion, design and food brand,” says Nigel Kiong, CEO and co-founder of The Editor’s Market.
The extended yet thoroughly curated range of lifestyle and homeware brands add a new dimension to our product offering. The in-store café also brings to life our design-oriented direction in a previously unexplored format: food and drinks.”
Pastries, desserts and coffee will be presented using crockery that customers can shop from the homeware section of the store – creating a whole new way of experiencing The Editor’s Market lifestyle. This is the start of a whole new journey for us,” he adds.
