erm okay did some checks, think LV@ION is a maison.
its only second in the world to carry full range of products so probably its on par with champ elysees?:s11:

Can't be... Tokyo/NY buying power much more higher than SG. We[S.E.A. combined] can only rival HK/Shanghai.

Well the break went on quite fast.

You can't defy age lol. Overall I am happy with where I am today even though I am slightly lagging behind my JC friends.

My mom runs a export/import food stuff, so we normally have a small pool of workers only. And I help out also.


Thanks Aryn for the brief background. You must have spent an enjoyable break eh? Haha. To be honest, how i wish i am stuck at 18 or 19. To be able to spend every moment with much freedom, i couldn't ask for anything more. Be it financial freedom or work freedom, it rocks to be in that position. Next year go army liao, after army study/work. Cannot enjoy :(

Your mother's company recruiting? Cuz i might want to find along term part time job and my girlfriend would like to find one too. Oh, she's starting commencing her SIM Accountancy course this coming August. Maybe you can see her there. Haha.

Seems like everyone is geared up for Ion's opening. I must surely go down tomorrow to catch the magnificent building (so far in Orchard) :D

Anyone with any idea what are the stores that are open for public entry already?

Blah, that what they say only it being a maison store. Not everything is in, I found quite a lot of the shoes missing and they have very small sizing for the ones available. I am quite angry with it. I was looking forward to buying something today.

If it's runway stuff then you'll have to wait till LV NAC lvl 2 to open. Only there will they sell more RTW

Lol, ION LV carries a full range of products that means RTW, High-end Jewelery, Watches, Luggages, Shoes, Bags and sunglasses.

Some of the F/W RTW and shoes have already trickled in and are on displap and can be bought in the store. Its just that I expected a much more impressive range of stuff to e available when the store opened. Just have to wait and see whether they really bring everything in to qualify it as a Global store.


@DaveBDT, I researched online just now and found out that we cannot call ION LV a Maison store because it only has the full range of products but since there are no major art peices on display to make the store have a cultural aspect, ION LV will be called a global store like the one in Shanghai. Hope this clears everything up.

haha, say say only one. canton road one prolly still pwns this one deep depp.

The only way Canton rd LV pawns ION LV is because it have a bigger allocation on all the stuff like RTW, limited edition bags, the le extradionaires bags and others.

err... i know?

Well u can never expect to have a big range because this is Singapore. Demand for RTW is extremely low, and the LV buyers can't do much. Even the samples they loan to us is limited, so you can imagine the RTW range already.

Lol, I am just stating that since ION opened, it will receive the bulk of the allocation on everything compared to NAC. Now NAC will have lesser ppl which is good also lol.

Just for the moment. When the ION hype dies, NAC's crowd will return. Even today, there was a huge Q outside NAC.

I wonder what's gonna happen to Hilton's front shops though. LV and Cartier closed to shift over to Ion, leaving only Bulgari & Mulberry up front. I hope Mrs. Ong feels rich and brings in McQ and MMM =O :o :o
