Barcelona-based luxury label M2Malletier produces some of the most striking, such as this red alligator leather bag with gold details.

WILD CARD Taking the energy of the 90s as inspiration, Diesel champions rock ’n’ roll chic for autumn/ winter 2017/18. Mismatched styling is a common theme for both men and women in the brand’s latest collection. In the womenswear offering, silky dresses are worn under raincoats, and polka prints are juxtaposed with checks and stripes.

For autumn/winter 2017/18 Lacoste’s creative director Felipe Oliveira Baptista has produced a collection that is inspired by aeronautics. This pays homage to founder René Lacoste and his interest in aviation and also reflects Baptista’s own fascination with space. Outerwear is a highlight, with statement parkas, bombers and trench coats. There’s a big functional element, too, with pieces that look like overalls and handbags that double as backpacks. Orange, yellow and lilac add dashes of colour while cosmos prints adorning men’s and women’s tops emphasise the space theme. grc Lacoste, Passeig de Gràcia 51, 08007 Barcelona, +34 93 487 4464, lacoste.com

IN STORE: LYDIA DELGADO

‘We opened our first store more than 20 years ago and moved to this location, right next to the old store, two years ago. I fell in love with the place because it reminds me of a loft and is very luminous, large and cosy at the same time. On top of that, it is located on a charming street, just a stone’s throw from Passeig de Gràcia. I was 100% involved with the design and concept of the store, as I always have a clear idea of what I want. The main references that I wanted to incorporate into the design range from Miami’s Save up to 15.7% by shopping tax free, see page 69

I think there is a little bit of all that in the shop. ‘We have always tried to evolve with every collection, facing new challenges regarding colour, volumes and materials.

n a city as eclectic as Barcelona, whose vibrant culture can be seen throughout its art, food and architecture, it’s perhaps no surprise that the city’s shopping scene is seeing an eruption of creative concept stores. Filled with carefully curated products from the worlds of fashion, homeware, art and dining, these inventive boutiques are revolutionising the retail experience, aiming to provide an experience rather than a simple transaction. Trait Store opened in 2014 on Carrer del Parlament in the heart of the hip Sant Antoni district, and stocks a carefully selected range of workwear-inspired streetwear for both men and women, along with watches, sunglasses, bags and 70

footwear. Visitors will also find magazines and books, plus an ever-changing roster of unique items that have caught the eyes of founders Gabriel Ortiz and João Novaes. ‘For us, a concept store is more than a simple store,’ explains Ortiz. ‘It is a place where you can share different products that inspire you: perfumes, clothing, shoes ... Almost everything can have a space here if it fits in with the selection.’ ‘I think Barcelona is rediscovering cool spots in the city such as Sant Antoni, where we’re located,’ continues Ortiz, who believes that the evolution of some of Barcelona’s oldest areas is fuelling a big revolution in retail. ‘Old neighbourhoods are totally different now because they have Above: Trait Store

new and vibrant businesses. Those spots are the perfect places for new concept stores that want to build a new story with brands and products in the city.’ Visitors to Trait Store will discover a melting pot of local and international brands, including Catalan fashion label Rita Row, Barcelona-based Verdugo, Parisian menswear brand Bleu de Paname, American streetwear specialist Carhartt WIP and Swedish denim expert Nudie Jeans. But while the selection of brands available is vast, they all fit with Ortiz and Novaes’s aesthetic vision for Trait Store. Keeping true to that vision is of the utmost importance for the founding pair, Ortiz explains. ‘If you want to add something extra to the customer’s experience, you need

to offer a way of life rather than a simple product.’ Another store that transcends traditional retail divisions is Be. With three locations across the city, it has quickly become one of Barcelona’s leading concept-store names. Its branch on the city’s famous Avinguda Diagonal best captures the spirit of concept shopping. Visitors will find a selection of fashion for men and women, including the team’s own range of small leather accessories, as well as interior design pieces, beauty products, books and magazines. The space has its own coffee shop and an idyllic garden, filled with flowers available for purchase, where customers can relax on reclaimed vintage garden furniture and day beds. Award-winning designer Jaime Beriestain has been responsible for some of the city’s most captivating

interiors, and his eponymous concept store has become something of an institution in Barcelona. Here Beriestain feels he can share his passions with his clients. ‘This space is an extension of my house and the objects I like to surround myself with. Here I can show everything that, for lack of space, I can’t have at home,’ he explains. Reflecting Beriestain’s own diverse tastes, the store stocks an astonishingly varied selection of items under the Beriestain brand, from furniture and interior design pieces to candles, stationery, sunglasses and bags. There is even an in-house florist. ‘I consider it a laboratory that allows me to create and test the results of my experiments,’ he says. Adding to the store’s multifaceted appeal is the adjoining restaurant and cocktail bar. Decorated to emulate the



designer’s home, the café and showroom feature art from his private collection, including works by American conceptualist Peter Halley, British painter and sculptor Jason Martin and Barcelona’s own Yago Hortal, among others. The feeling of being at home extends to the menu, as Beriestain explains. ‘I am involved in every detail of my restaurant: the choice of food, the selection of small suppliers … I also bring lots of vegetables from my garden to be able to offer the quality I look for and the authenticity of each product.’ Perhaps the success of such stores in Barcelona can be best explained by the way their individuality adds to the city’s eclecticism. As Beriestain notes, ‘The good thing about every concept store is that each one has its own personality. In the end, we are all complementary because we are all different.’ Above (from top): Jaime Beriestain café; a chest of drawers from the brand; the eponymous designer

RAISING THE BAR From a cleverly revamped furniture store to a legendary martini venue, Barcelona is home to some of the world’s most happening bars. Rebecca Rhys-Evans takes a tour

Barcelona certainly knows how to party. This city of just over 1.6 million people is relatively small, yet it offers a vibrant wealth of nightlife, particularly with its cool bar scene. Some of Barcelona’s top bars are famous for their speciality cocktails, some for their brilliantly imaginative design and some for the supremely hip crowd that they attract. What they all have in common are great Catalan spirit and a flamboyant, palpably vital atmosphere. An early night simply isn’t in the Spanish DNA, so pace yourself on a visit to this ever-lively city. The locals head out late and they frequently don’t return home until the early hours, even on weekdays. Join them for memorable evenings of great tapas and cutting-edge cocktails. Here is our pick of the best venues. globalblue.com


PAT I O Patio bar at the Alexandra hotel is an oasis just off Passeig de GrĂ cia in the heart of Barcelona. For those in search of tranquillity away from the noise and bustle of the city, this is a perfect place to unwind. What could be better than relaxing in outdoor lounge chairs amid pots of herbs and exotic plants and sipping great signature cocktails in this casualyet-cool setting?

DRY MARTINI

MARMALADE

For Dry Martini’s legendary proprietor Javier de las Muelas, the world behind the bar is a stage. His staff are impeccably dressed in crisp white dinner jackets and perform with steadfast seriousness as they create clever cocktails. The venue is renowned in Barcelona and beyond and is said to be the home of the world’s best dry martini – it regularly features in the William Reed list of the top 50 bars on the planet. Dry Martini also offers an extensive gin collection and its menu features cocktails made with a wide array of ingredients ‒ each one mixed and shaken to absolute perfection. Dry Martini, Carrer d’Aribau 162, 08036 Barcelona, +34 93 217 5072, drymartiniorg.com

This former furniture store is one of the most popular venues in Barcelona. Owners Rebecca and Paul Coleman are originally from Ireland and have captured the spirit of the increasing, global trend of vibe dining here ‒ presenting separate spaces to drink, eat and party under one roof. The cocktail lounge is particularly impressive. Styled as an easy-going 1950s New York/Havana bar, it offers an extensive drinks menu with classic cocktails and original concoctions such as the Red Chilli Mango Margarita and Boozy Rouge Beri with vodka, crème de cassis and raspberry purée.

IDEAL This is the oldest venue on our list. Inspired by bars in England, Antonio Gotarda, grandfather of the current owner José María Gotarda, founded Ideal in 1931. Complete with dark wood panelled walls, it became a hotspot for Hollywood celebrities including Charlton Heston. Today it retains its original good looks and offers an ace team of bartenders who boast the ability to create any drink a customer might fancy. They will always go the extra mile to offer truly authentic ingredients; the pina colada, for example, is made with rum from the Caribbean and coconut milk imported from Puerto Rico.

It is spread across two floors above sister operation Boca Grande restaurant and is lined with vintage photographs and quirky artefacts.

This season, Spanish womenswear brand Sita Murt is inspired by the Beat movement and the style of American activist and singer/songwriter Joan Baez. Blouses are given retro charm with the addition of frills at the collar and cuffs, paisley-style prints adorn bohemian tops in red and white, and knitwear is updated with the addition of metallic silver panels. Choose a grey and tan oversized cardigan as a transitional piece that will keep you warm as the weather cools between the seasons. A black sleeveless ruffle top is a great choice for a dinner date on your Barcelona getaway. Sita Murt, Carrer del Rec 32, 08003 Barcelona, +34 93 760 5691, sitamurt.com

念。Ortiz解 释 说,在两位创 始 人 眼 中,最为重要 的莫 过于坚 守审 美 理 念。“ 如果 你 想为顾客 的 体 验 锦 上 添 花,就 必 须 提 供一 种 生活方 式,而非 一 件 简简单 单 的产品。” Be是 另一家超 越了传 统 零售业 之界 限 的商店。Be在 全 城 共 有三 家 分店,很快 便 成 为了巴 塞 罗那首屈 一 指的 概 念店之一。它 著名的对角线 大 道( Avinguda Diagonal)分店完 美 地 捕 捉 到了概 念购 物 之 精 髓。顾客 将 在 店内邂 逅 众多精 选男女 士时装,包 括 Be团队自营 的小皮革饰品;除 此 之 外,还 有家居 饰品、美 妆产品、书 籍 和杂 志。店中更有一家自营 咖 啡 馆 和 一座 景 色怡人 的 花园,园内摆 满了 种 种可供 购买的 花卉,顾客可以在 Be 所回收 的 古董 庭 院 家具 和沙发 床 上 尽情憩 息。 屡 获 殊 荣 的 设 计师 Jaime Beriestain曾一 手负 责 城中许 多迷 人 的室内装 潢,他 的同名概 念商店 也已成 为巴 塞 罗那的 行业典 范。在 这 里,Beriestain可以 尽情 和顾客 分享他 的 热 情。“这 里 是我 私宅 及 身 边物品的延伸。在 这 里,我可以展 示由于空间有限 无法在 家中摆 设 的

一 切 事 物。”他 解 释 道。该 店 陈列着 Beriestain品牌 名下的 精 选 单品,名 类 之多 令人 称奇;从家具 和内饰 设 计品到烛台、文具、太阳 镜 及包 袋, 无不 体 现了 Beriestain独 特而多元 的 品味。店中甚至有一 间自营 花 房,“ 我 把它看作一 间实 验 室,我可以在 这 里自由创意并且测 试 实 验 结果。” 他说 道。 毗邻的 餐厅 和 鸡 尾 酒 吧 更 加 丰富了这 家店 的多重 魅力。咖 啡厅 和陈列室 的装 潢 均 效仿 Beriestain 的 私宅,饰 有设 计师 私 人 珍藏 的 艺 术 珍品,包括 美国概 念 派艺 术 家 Peter Halley,英国画家、雕 塑 家 Jason Martin和巴 塞 罗那本地艺 术 家 Yago Hortal等大师的作品。正 如 Beriestain所 解 释,家一 般 的感 觉 还 延伸到了菜 单上。“ 我 亲自参 与了餐厅 的每 一 个 细 节:食 材 的 选 择,小 供 应 商的 挑 选……我 还 会从我 的 花园带 来许 多蔬 菜,从而为 每 一 位 顾客 提 供 我 所 追求的品质与地 道 产品。” 或许,这 些 店铺 之 所以在巴 塞 罗 那 取得成 功,是因为 它们 的 缤 纷 个 性 丰富了这 座 兼 收 并 蓄的 城 市。正 如 Beriestain所言:“ 好在每 一家概 念

РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД 36: Concept City Концептуальный город Старинные бульвары Барселоны стали свидетелями новой волны мультибрендовых бутиков, – пишет Руайрид Притчард Для такого многогранного города, как Барселона, чей яркий стиль выражен через призму искусства, гастрономии и архитектуры, появление новых концепт-сторов является делом довольно обычным. Тщательно отобранные вещи из разных уголков земли, включая одежду, товары для дома, посуду и предметы искусства

– лишь небольшой список того, что представлено в этих инновационных бутиках, цель которых – окунуть покупателя в особую атмосферу, нежели просто предложить ему товар. Магазин Trait Store был открыт в 2014 году на Carrer del Parlament в самом центре хипстерского района СанАнтонио. Здесь посетителям предлагают избранные коллекции мужской и женской уличной одежды, стилизованной под рабочую униформу, а также часы, солнцезащитные очки, сумки и обувь. Кроме того, посетителей ждут интересные книги и журналы, а также постоянно обновляющийся интерьер, состоящий из уникальных вещиц,


приглянувшихся основателям – Габриелю Ортицу и Жуану Нувайсу. «Для нас концепт-стор – это больше, нежели обычный магазин, – поясняет Ортиц. – Это место, где можно поделиться с людьми продукцией, которая нас вдохновляет: духами, одеждой, обувью… Здесь может быть все, что угодно, главное, чтобы оно гармонировало с остальными вещами». «Мне кажется, Барселона заново открывает стильные места, такие, например, как СанАнтони, – продолжает Ортиц, считающий, что эволюция старинных городских районов способствует революции в области розничных продаж. – Старые кварталы сегодня globalblue.ru

практически не узнать, а все из-за новых магазинов. Такие места идеально подходят для открытия бизнеса, история которого начнется в этом городе». Посетителей Trait Store ждет настоящий калейдоскоп местных и международных брендов, включая каталонскую марку одежды Rita Row, барселонскую Verdugo, парижский бренд мужской одежды Bleu de Paname, американский бренд уличной одежды Carhartt WIP и шведскую марку изделий из денима – Nudie Jeans. Несмотря на изобилие брендов, все они гармонично вписываются в эстетические идеалы Trait Store. По словам Оритца, сохранение верности идеалам – одна из важнейших

задач для руководства. «Если вы хотите расширить покупательский опыт, то вам необходимо предлагать новый образ жизни, а не ограничиваться вещами». Магазин «Be» также относится к числу ритейлеров, стремящихся выйти за рамки традиционной торговли. Этот концепт-стор имеет три филиала в городе, и за довольно короткий срок приобрел большую популярность. Подразделение, расположенное на Avinguda Diagonal, как нельзя лучше подчеркивает атмосферу концептуального шоппинга. Посетителям предоставляется большой выбор мужской и женской одежды, включая фирменную линию кожаных аксессуаров, а также предметов интерьера, косметики, книг и журналов. Здесь работает кафе

и имеется идиллический садик, засаженный цветами (которые при желании можно приобрести), где посетители отдыхают на винтажных креслах и диванах. Известный испанский дизайнер Хайме Бериестайн создал целый ряд захватывающих интерьеров в городе, а его одноименный концепт-стор стал чем-то вроде выставочной галереи, где дизайнер может уверенно делиться своей страстью с окружающими. «Это пространство является продолжением моего дома и тех предметов, которыми я предпочитаю себя окружать. Здесь я могу выставлять все, что не помещается у меня дома», – поясняет он. Ассортимент магазина во многом отражает вкус дизайнера и представлен фирменными изделиями Бериестайна, от мебели и

предметов интерьера до свечей, канцелярских товаров, очков и сумок. В магазине также можно воспользоваться услугами флориста. «Для меня это целая лаборатория, в которой я могу вдоволь экспериментировать», – говорит он. Прилегающий ресторан и коктейльный бар еще больше подчеркивает многогранность проекта. Заведения Café и Showroom, призванные создать образ дома дизайнера, украшены предметами из его личной коллекции, и включают работы американского концептуалиста Питера Хелли, британского художника и скульптора Джейсона Мартина и местного барселонского художника Яго Хортала. Ощущение домашней атмосферы отразилось и на меню: «Я принимаю непосредственное участие в управлении рестораном: выбираю продукты, ищу независимых поставщиков… Я также стараюсь использовать овощи, выращенные в моем саду, чтобы гарантировать необходимое качество и подлинность каждого блюда». Возможно, успех подобных магазинов в Барселоне можно объяснить тем, как они дополняют эклектику города. Как заметил Бериестайн: «Положительный момент концепт-сторов в том, что каждый из них обладает индивидуальностью. В конечном счете мы все друг друга дополняем, потому что все мы разные». globalblue.ru

アートに食に建築にと、活気みなぎる 文化都市バルセロナ。様々な要素をい いとこ取りするこの町に創造性豊かな コンセプトストアが次々できているの も、不思議はないだろう。ファッション やインテリア、アート、食の世界から選 りすぐりの商品を集めた斬新なブティ ックが小売シーンを塗り替え、ショッ ピングを単なる取引以上の体験にしよ うとしている。 ヒップ なサン・アントニ 地 区の

中 心 を 横 切る パルラメント通りに 2014年にオープンしたトレイト・スト ア(Trait Store)では、仕事着にヒン トを得たストリートウェア(メンズとウ ーマンズ)や腕時計、サングラス、バッ グ、フットウェアを厳 選して置いてい る。雑誌や本もあり、さらに、創業者 のガブリエル・オルティスとジョアン・ ノヴァエスのお眼鏡にかなったユニー クな品々をとっかえひっかえ陳列して いる。 「私たちにとってコンセプトスト アは単なる店ではありません」という オルティス。 「香水にしろ服にしろ靴 にしろ、自分がいいなと思った様々な 商品を人と分かち合える場なのです。 セレクションにフィットすれば、ほぼど んな物でも扱いますよ。」 「バルセロナ市では粋なスポット が新たにできているようです。当店の あるサン・アントニもその一つ」という オルティスは、市内で最も歴史ある地

区が進化し、それが小売革命に拍車 をかけていると考えている。 「古い市 街に新しい店舗ができて活気が戻り、 すっかり様変わりしています。そういっ たスポットは、バルセロナでブランド や商品を集め新たなストーリーを語ろ うとする新進コンセプトストアにはまさ にピッタリなんです。」 トレイト・ストアはカタルーニャの ファッションレーベル「リタ・ロウ」や バルセロナを本拠とする「ヴェルドゥ ゴ」、パリのメンズウェアブランド「ブ ルー・ドゥ・パナム」、アメリカのストリ ートウェア専門店「カーハートWIP」 、スウェーデンのデニム専門店「ヌー ディジーンズ」など、地元ブランドと国 際ブランドが混在するるつぼ。幅広い ブランドを取り揃えているが、すべて オルティスとノヴァエスが描いたトレ イト・ストアのビジョンに合ったものば

かりだ。自分たちのビジョンに適うこ とが一番大事なのだと、オルティスは いう。 「お客様のショッピング体験に 何かプラスアルファをつけたければ、 単に商品を売るのではなくてライフス タイルを提案する必要があります。」 もう一つ、従来の小売の枠を超 えた店がビー(Be)だ。市内に3店を 構えるビーは、瞬く間にバルセロナの 有力コンセプトストアになった。有名 なディアゴナル通りにある支店は、ま さにコンセプトショッピングの精神を 体現したスペース。自社製の革製小物 やインテリア雑貨、ビューティ製品、 本、雑誌なども含め、メンズやウーマ ンズの厳選ファッションアイテムが揃 っている。直営コーヒーショップと花 が咲き乱れるのどかな庭もあって、生 花を買い求めたり、再生されたヴィン テージ物のガーデン家具やデイベッド

でくつろいだりできる。 一方 、受 賞 歴 の あるデ ザイナ ー、ハイメ・ベリエスタインはバルセ ロナでとびきり魅 力的なインテリア をいくつも手 掛けてきたが、その彼 が自身の名を冠したコンセプトストア (Beriestain)はバルセロナの名物ス ポットになっている。ここは、ベリエス タインが自分の情熱をクライアントと 分かち合えると感じるスペースだ。 「 僕の自宅の延長で、自分が身の回りに 置きたいものを集めました。家ではス ペースがなくて置けないものも、ここ なら全て並べられます」という。同店 はベリエスタイン自身の幅広い趣味を 反映し、家具からインテリア雑貨、キ ャンドル、文具、サングラス、バッグま で、ベリエスタインブランドの実に様々 なアイテムを扱い、フローリストまでい る。 「自分で創作し、実験的に作った ものをテストできるラボのような所と、 僕は考えています。」 レストランやカクテルバーも併設 されていて、同店の多面的な魅力はさ らに広がる。ベリエスタインの自宅を 模した内装のカフェやショールームに は、アメリカのコンセプチュアルアーテ ィスト、ピーター・ハリーやイギリスの 画家・彫刻家ジェイソン・マーティン、 地元バルセロナのイアーゴ・ホルタル など、彼のプライベートコレクションか ら選んだアート作品が飾られている。 自宅感覚はメニューにまで及ぶと、ベ リエスタインは説明してくれた。 「レス トランは、食べ物の選択や小規模な 仕入先の選定など細かい点にもいち いち関与しました。自分が追求する品 質で、一つ一つ確かな品をお出しでき るよう、自家菜園で育てた野菜もいろ いろ持ち込んでいます。」 バルセロナでこうした店舗が成 功を収めているのはおそらく、この都 市の折衷主義に個性が加わっている からだろう。ベリエスタインがいうよう

に、 「各コンセプトストアのいいところ は、独自のパーソナリティがあること。 結局、各自が違うからこそ補完しあえ るのですから。」
