For the column “SHOPenauer’s store of the week”<\/a>, today we talk about Dover Street Market<\/h6>\n

Dover Street Market<\/strong> is a multi-brand retailer born on the homonymous Dover Street<\/strong>, in the Mayfair district of London<\/strong>. Over the years, its expansion has reached a global level and currently has stores in New York, Tokyo, Singapore, Beijing, Beijing and Los Angeles.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All this empire<\/strong> was born from the idea of Rei Kawakubo<\/strong>, designer and founder of the Japanese fashion label Comme des Gar\u00e7ons<\/strong>, and her husband Adrian Joffe<\/strong>. The store sells all the Comme des Gar\u00e7ons lines brand, combining high fashion brands with emerging and streetwear brands.<\/p>\n

The first Dover Street Market<\/strong> was inaugurated on 10 September 2004 from 17 to 18 of the homonymous street, in Mayfair, London. In March 2016, the original store was moved<\/strong> to the former Burberry building (erected in 1912 by Thomas Burberry) on Haymarket (South Piccadilly).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Often described as a concept store<\/strong>, the store offers instead a different approach to retailing<\/strong>, pushing the boundaries of what this type of sales really should be.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The concept behind this project is in fact a new type of store that celebrates creativity<\/strong>, denigrates the comformity<\/strong> and ignores the established principles of retailing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A place where streetwear clashes with luxury<\/strong>, young designers line up with world-famous icons<\/strong>, artists interfere in installations<\/strong> and designers are free to create their own spaces<\/strong>. All aiming to create a nice chaos.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In 2013, the London store was ranked by Complex as the second best store in the world.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
