The company is delighted to announce the opening of its new store in the historic Plaza del Lago mall at Lake Michigan’s North Shore.
The setting reflects the dramatic nature and wildlife of its surroundings, inviting visitors to discover the house’s sixteen métiers. The Spanish Revival façade has been preserved to honour its century-old heritage. An iconic bell tower anchors the store’s exterior, while enlarged windows draw natural light into the two-level store.
The ground floor entrance features a radiant honey-hued palette layered with delicate dragonfly wing motifs in stucco and wood. Guests are greeted by the house’s emblematic ex-libris and Grecques lighting, revealing the silk universe and fashion jewellery. Silken walls and carpets, reminiscent of compressed agate from across the lake, present the home collection to the left next to the equestrian area, with fragrances to the right.
A spiral staircase, with intricate dragonfly wing patterns, slinks upwards to the spacious area housing men’s universe and women’s ready-to wear in front of women’s shoes, all bathed in natural light and features handmade colour-gradient carpets. In the centre is an intimate space for the jewellery, watches and leather goods collections, which are surrounded by light wood walls symbolising the reflection of the sun in the lake with engravings also inspired by dragonfly wings.
