Only eight years after first opening up shop in New York City‘s happening Soho neighbourhood, MYKITA expands uptown with a second outpost on leafy Madison Avenue. Rubbing shoulders with leading luxury brands such as Christian Louboutin, Carolina Herrera and Apple, and only a few blocks away from the Met, the store occupies a 162 sq.ft. (15 sqm.) unit on the ground floor of an early 20th-century building. The interior design, created by MYKITA‘s in-house design team, is instantly recognisable, featuring the brand’s signature backlit display wall which covers almost half of the compact store. Given the limited space, furnishings are sparse, comprising merely of an oak desk with apricot-coloured sides and paired with four chairs, a matching metal display table, and a floor-to-ceiling storage unit with drawers, cabinets and shelving in a contrasting soft blue shade. A single trolley, also a signature feature, comes in the same colour. The new MYKITA store carries the brand’s full range of optical eyewear and sunglasses, and in-store optical services include frame adjustments and fittings, as well as prescription lenses by ZEISS.
