Lagardère Travel Retail has teamed up with Tory Burch to open a new standalone store, featuring an Asia-first personalisation and embroidery service activation, at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 2.

The launch event welcomed high-profile guests including Thibault Villet, President APAC of Tory Burch; Ann Pang, CEO Singapore & Malaysia of Lagardère Travel Retail; and Chandra Mahtani, Senior Vice President, Airside Leasing & T5 Commercial Planning Changi Airport Group.

Following a ribbon cutting ceremony, guests embarked on a store tour to discover the curated array of Tory Burch pieces, and to see a demonstration of the in-store embroidery activation.

Guests enjoyed canapés and drinks specially crafted for the event by Marche, one Lagardère Travel Retail’s restaurants in Singapore.

The launch of the personalisation service was a clear highlight of the store. It gives shoppers the opportunity to select a thread colour of their choice for up to three initials to be embroidered on-the-spot on dustbags to accompany their purchase.

This special activation marks the first time that this service has been offered at a Tory Burch boutique in Asia, both in downtown stores and in travel retail.

The embroidery service was available in-store at Terminal 2 until 24 October 2024.

It will be brought back in December for a limited time to the brand-new Tory Burch Boutique at Terminal 1 Singapore Changi Airport, which was unveiled in June this year, also by Lagardère Travel Retail.
