The buzz: After their successful Voyage, agnès b.’s more vibrant SPORT B. collection gets a proper home right in the heart of Orchard Road.
The vibe: Vintage Moroccan tiles are used in the flooring, complete with a raw range of furniture and shelves which create an edgy aesthetic not entirely in line with the clean collection—but that’s exactly why the displays stand out. Topped with brick walls, metal shelves, drawers, wire nets and hooks, with rock ‘n’ roll vinyls handpicked by creative director Agnès b herself, there’s a real vintage-meets-mod feel here.
The clothes: Great for those with an upbeat, active style, the SPORT B. Collection introduces a large new variety of apparel—think T-shirts, vests, polo shirts, shirts, jackets, windbreakers, jeans, shorts and mini skirts. Denim is also a highlight here, with various cuts and fits, including straight, relaxed, skinny/slim, high-waist and low-waist. For accessories, try the various hats, bags, sneakers and necklaces. The berets, in particular, are very hip, as are the travel bags, haversacks and Boston bags.
Why you’ll be back: Because of that gnawing feeling that one piece just isn’t enough.
