In addition to the street-brand H&M, more luxury brands are testing out Bangkok, too, courtesy of the retailer Club 21. Their two new openings on the first floor of Erawan Bangkok (Ploenchit Rd., Bangkok. BTS Chit Lom) are from London: Alexander McQueen (02-250-7844), known for their distinctive cloth designs and that wedding gown they produced for the Duchess of Cambridge, and Stella McCartney (02-250- 7845), the daughter of Paul McCartney and devout vegan who believes good design doesn’t need animal skins or furs. Across the street at CentralWorld, Central Market Group has opened Thailand’s first Versace Jeans shop at Zen (5/F, Zen, CentralWorld, Ratchadamru Rd., Bangkok. BTS Siam/Chit Lom), introducing its Autumn/Winter collection that pairs jeans with gothic, baroque and animal prints.
