Prada opens it's first store in Johannesburg, South Africa, inside the prestigious Sandton City Mall Shopping Centre.

The space, designed by architect Roberto Baciocchi, covers over an area of 800 square metres and houses the women's and men's ready-to-wear, leather goods, accessories and footwear collections.

The internal facade, of remarkable visual impact, stretches about 65 metres in length and with its elegant geometry results the focus of the "Diamond Walk": a backlit white canvas curtain enclosed in a crystal box creates a sophisticated atmosphere. Strips of black marble frame the entrances, windows and light boxes, lending a precious flair to the space.

A beautiful store graces JHB and I look forward to the launch tomorrow night:)
