The brand’s new Hong Kong boutique – or negozio, Italian for “store” – brings that approach to Tsim Sha Tsui’s Harbour City shopping complex, where a 250-square-metre space places warm materials, soft architecture, subtle Alpine inspiration and a full menswear wardrobe at the centre of the customer experience.
