Villa Moda Al Manshar is Close to Reality

Villa Moda's official group on Facebook has invited its members to submit questions for the first live video interview with the team behind the concept for their 4th location in Kuwait: Villa Moda, Al Manshar (Madinat Al-Fahaheel, Kuwait) which is due to open at the beginning of 2008 with the unique concept brought by Sybarite UK. Here are some sketches of the concept which was displayed by Villa Moda's group. Click on the images for a larger view:





The concept of Villa Moda Al Manshar, carried out by Sybarite, is an architectural and design practice that aims to tease all of the human senses and to sculpt architecture into the living environment in which it exists, whilst retaining complete functionality.

Sybarite UK are already responsible for stores such as, Marni (Milan), Joseph (London), Junko Shimada (Tokyo / Paris) and now Villa Moda (Al Manshar - Kuwait).

A selection of 15 final questions shall be chosen for the interview. The deadline for sumitting the questions on facebook is 20th November 2007.

I assure them of my custom provided they offer me a free chopper ride from a convenient nodal to Al Manshar and back.

Spare me the ordeal of signing up on Facebook. You can forward to them my question for what it's worth.

Haute couture pour homme in Kuwait is in the dumps today. What can Villa Moda do, in coming years, to shake up things in this department to make fashion more men friendly?

First of all thank you 'Confashion' for helping push the PR of the group.

Bashar, thank you.

Goda zayaani, kindly noted.

61 year old virgin, no need to sign up for the full use of facebook, it can purely be for the group or if you send us your email we can store you on our soon to be monthly newsletters.

Your question is a good one and my shortest response would be to look out for the unique and villa moda commissioning of the traditional 'dishdashas' designed by TOM FORD.

Thanks again all.

The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
