The Kooples (Paris), with 350 points of sale worldwide, opened its first U.S. Flagship last weekend in Los Angeles. Located on the highly visible South Robertson Boulevard, the 3100-square-foot store is the 10th location worldwide merchandising both the brand’s men’s and women’s signature line and The Kooples Sport line, which was launched in 2012.
The L.A. store combines the signature black color scheme of The Kooples Stores and the all-white look of the The Kooples Sport stores, according to Women’s Wear Daily. Floors, walls and shelves are finished with Italian marble. Jumbo screens at the back of the store play black-and-white brand videos. A New York Flagship will open next month in the city’s Meatpacking District.
