ZADIG & VOLTAIRE opened a new flagship store in Zürich

Located in the «golden triangle» of Zürich on Stochengasse 7, ZADIG & VOLTAIRE’s new flagship store has finally opened its doors and I was lucky enough to be at the official opening party last night where I could see for myself the amazing store as well as the new collections. The flagship store is about 215 square metres and represents an entirely new concept designed by Thierry Gillier, featuring modern architecture and two levels joined by a spiral staircase. The ground floor for the women’s collection as well as shoes and accessories, while the second level showcases the men’s collection.
