Excelsior

Milan, Italy

Even located in the heart of one of the world’s fashion capitals (on Milan’s Galleria del Corso 4), the grandiose scale of this concept store in what was once the Excelsior Cinema is a revelation. It offers the discerning shopper high design, fashion, beauty and gourmet dining experiences. And the store’s decor echoes the rather contemporary theme of its offerings with its sleek minimalism and artsy video installations. Elegance and originality is the credo at Excelsior, and five of the store’s floors are home to the most elite fashion labels, such as, Maison Martin Margiela, Balmain, Dries Van Noten, Proenza Schouler, Isabel Marant, Christian Louboutin and more, while its two lower floors serve up mouth-watering experiences through its restaurant and food market.
