We all know that shopping these days needs to me so much more than a rudimentary grab-and-go affair. The mixture of impeccable service, arresting interiors & architecture and carefully curated product can result in an exquisite shopping experience. The opening of Acne Studios Little Bourke Street marks a new fashion destination in the Melbourne CBD, serving as another fantastic example of the lengths retailers will go to create this very effect on shoppers.

Located in the evolving The Strand complex, Little Bourke Street store is the first in Australia to showcase Acne’s new perforated aluminium retail design, which has already rolled out in L.A. and Paris. The opening of this exciting store has taken Melbourne’s already booming retail scene to new heights. The retail concept has been developed by Acne’s long term collaborator Andreas Bozarth Fornell of BOZARTHFORNELL. Measuring 100 square meters, the store carries men’s and women’s ready-to-wear collections, denim, shoes and accessories.
