The ground floor of Emporium Department Store has just welcomed a new section packed with imported fashion brands previously hard to come by in Bangkok.

One corner, dubbed The Asian Studio, is chockfull of rising names in the regional fashion scene like La Reve and Come and See by M.A.C from Korea.

Under the umbrella of The Australian Labels, you’ll find chic labels like C/MEO Collective, Finders Keepers, Keepsake and Bec & Bridge.

For some timeless minimalism, head for Singapore-born In Good Company, which specializes in simple black and white pieces, or pay more for the luxurious clean-cut looks of Joseph from the UK.
