Come
early May 2011, French beauty retailer, Sephora, will set a new milestone in
its successful global business as it debuts a flagship store in Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia. Sephora Malaysia’s flagship joins the ranks of other flagship
presence in the most exciting cities of Paris, Rome and New York, cementing
this city’s crusade for a new beauty revolution. A two-storey stand-alone
architectural marvel at Starhill Gallery along Bintang Walk, Sephora aims to
deliver a new shopping experience that encourages its beliefs of Excellence in retailing, Freedom to choose, Emotion evoked via the exciting product range and an Audacity that constantly surprises the
customer.
Mr Ravi Thakran, President, Sephora (South
and South East Asia, Australia/New Zealand) said, “Sephora’s vision for
Malaysia is to be a Beauty Authority, promoting a new shopping experience to
this country’s gents and ladies alike, offering an unparalleled range of
products and a high standard of service. We are very excited and hope for
everyone to be part of this with us. More importantly, we hope to make Sephora
Malaysia a destination where customers can constantly learn the latest beauty
trends and tips to further complement their savvy lifestyles.“
Covering
close to 10,000 square feet in size, the flagship store consists of two-levels
that carry the world’s leading beauty and makeup brands, such as Clinique,
Dior, Estee Lauder, Lancome as well as some of the coolest and most
cutting-edge brands like Amazing Cosmetics, Bare Minerals, Urban Decay and
Sephora private label collection. As a Beauty Authority, Sephora is a one-stop
beauty emporium that embodies a unique personality that is hip, fun, cool,
interactive, sophisticated and committed to carrying beauty and cosmetic brands
with efficacious formulas, spectacular colours and superior quality.
“Sephora’s
flagship store in Malaysia sets a new benchmark in many ways. The store concept
has been specially developed by the design team in France, boasting new and never-been-seen
fixtures and state-of-the-art lighting features, setting a new standard for
Sephora retail. We will also be offering many coveted beauty brands that are
exclusive to Sephora, adding new innovations for customer selection. In
addition, we are looking to
introduce a new concept store that will include facial treatment services and
retail experiences on the second level with an international brand name. It
will be something very exciting, which we prefer not to divulge at this stage
as we work with our business partners to bring a whole new experience to
Malaysia,” said Ms
Violet Ho, Regional General Manager, Sephora, South East Asia.
The
Sephora flagship store is located at Starhill Gallery, Bintang Walk, Jalan
Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur. For more information and updates on Sephora in

Wow that a nice shop to place in Bukit Bintang. I miss going there, I usually go there every weekend sometimes to hang around with friends and even shopping.
ReplyDeleteyes Raymund, plenty of places for retail therapy but I seldom go down here, it can be really congested and crowded.
