Cole Haan opens 8th and 9th Philippine stores
COLE HAAN, the iconic American lifestyle accessories brand and retailer of premium men’s and women’s footwear and accessories, has opened two more stores — its 8th and 9th in the Philippines — at Festival Mall in Alabang and Ayala Malls Vertis North in Quezon City.
The design and interior of both stores feature a series of rooms, which is inspired by a residential layout that showcases the brand’s new lifestyle products. This new layout allows for a wider range of footwear and accessories to be elegantly displayed.
Coinciding with the unveiling of these two new stores is the launch of Cole Haan’s 2017 Fall “Extraordinary Women, Extraordinary Stories” campaign featuring fashion icons Christy Turlington Burns and Karlie Kloss, captured by acclaimed photographer Cass Bird.
Ms. Burns and Ms. Kloss have been both inspired to transpose their success in modeling to work towards creating impacts on women’s lives through their respective initiatives: Kode with Klossy, empowering young women and girls to learn to code as well as become leaders in tech and, Every Mother Counts, providing support to mothers around the world with access to essential maternity care.
“When someone is extraordinary, they are being genuine to their unique passions and chasing their dreams,” Ms. Kloss was quoted as saying in a press release. Ms. Burns was in turn quoted as saying: “What any of us do on any daily basis is very ordinary, very routine. Extraordinary is really born from being your best possible self in any of those given moments.”
Cole Haan Philippines recently launched the 2017 Fall GrandEvolution collection, a direct evolution from the first Grand franchise, OriginalGrand, which adds traction and a modern look to the original outsole fluting. Additional collections include GrandMotion for men, and the next generation StudioGrand collection for women, ideal for running from street-to-studio and everywhere in between.
