March 2008
The first TOM FORD store outside of the United States was opened in Hankyu Men’s Store, Osaka, Japan by the Lane Crawford Joyce Group. The opening of the first TOM FORD store in Asia has been well received with TOM FORD the number one brand in the store on the first day.
Conceived by Tom Ford and designed by his longtime collaborator, architect William Sofield, the 1,300-square-foot shop in shop is located at the most prestigious address in Osaka, Japan. In developing the look of the interior architecture, Ford imagined a new menswear environment that would accommodate the special process of ordering a custom-made or hand-finished suit, a pair of handmade shoes, or a personally blended fragrance. The store is a glamorous, yet decidedly masculine, world that is colored in burnished, pale grays and shades of sable brown.
The Lane Crawford Joyce Group is opening the second TOM FORD shop-in-shop in Hong Kong by April 2008 in Lane Crawford, ifc mall. The Lane Crawford Joyce Group will open more than 80 stores throughout the Asia-Pacific region in 10 countries, including but not limited to Japan, Hong Kong, China, Korea, Taiwan, Macau, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and Australia.
