The buzz: It’s fashion reborn for multi-label boutique Blackjack, which closed down in 2011. Its reincarnation, Club 21b, focuses on more luxe and avant garde labels with a distinctive sartorial point of view.The vibe: Less minimal and austere than its main sister stores Club 21 and Club 21 Men at Four Seasons Hotel, the vibe here is more relaxed (yet still dynamic) with a more compact layout and yellow mood lighting; reflected further through the brands stocked here.The goods: Simply to die for. The collection is a step up from the previous Blackjack store. More obscure labels such as Ganyru Comme de Garcons and Liberty of London are finally available for men, while women can look forward to the highly sought-after Opening Ceremony x Chloe Sevigny x Robert Clergerie x Rodarte ready-to-wear collection and bags, and the previously unavailable Etoile by Isabel Marant and Halston Heritage pieces.Why you’ll be back: As if you really need a reason—not when this store epitomises hip in its highest form.
