Cav Empt is an online Japanese retailer that has opened its first flagship store in Aoyama, Tokyo.
Until now, the brand only sold its apparel on its website and select retailers but did not have its own flagship store. Its brick and mortar is unique in style, with only a few select pieces of clothing being displayed in the average-sized space. The store's primary feature is the fact that it is reflective, with mirror-covered walls and floors that are made of large glass tiles with cracks in them. The unique concept makes Cav Empt's first attempt at branching out -- one that is likely to capture the attention of many.
This flagship store asserts Cav Empt as a luxury brand that is willing to do something creative to stand out.
