April 24, 2013: Italian luxury menswear brand Canali has officially opened its first New York flagship store at 625 Madison Avenue, one of the Big Apple’s chicest addresses.
The store joins the Broad Street boutique in New York, which is located in the heart of the Financial District. The two-story, over 500sqm space, has an elegant and sophisticated setting, designed around a modern architectural concept with references to the brand’s renewed visual identity.
The exterior features the Canali logo: two small diamonds that intersect into infinity, alluding to the infinite stitches used to transform a Canali suit from conception to reality.
Inside, care was taken to even the tiniest detail to enhance the collection and customer experience. Fine materials in contrasting colours including grey stone, georgette silk and dark walnut wood, with the addition of shades of grey and warm-toned crystal glass, welcome clients into a distinctive and authoritative setting permeated by Italian savoir faire. A crystal glass elevator and a marble staircase, which seems suspended in mid air, accompany clients through an elegant environment including floors and walls made by “Avola stone”.
The store on the Upper East Side is enriched through exclusive products such as crocodile shoes, a VIP room reserved for private shopping, and the “Made to Measure” service.
