What happened
A luxury handbag brand has opened its first stand-alone store in Sloane Square, taking over the former location of Hugo Boss. The 3,230-square-foot space spans two floors and was designed to resemble a stylish home, featuring displays of the brand's bags and craft details. The bags are made in factories in Italy and Spain.
