At the new UNIVERS Shangri-La, Retail's Evolution Feels Right at Home

Almost three decades since taking one giant leap for retailkind, the store formerly known as Homme et Femme moves into a new era of exploration. 
 

In its place is UNIVERS, a bright new beginning for the storied space. With greater room to roam and design that strikes a balance between space-age lounge and Soho loft, what’s displayed feels even more like a discovery.  
 

We’re a world away from 1996, of course. The international designers that H&F first pulled into Manila’s orbit have since built an indelible following. Renegade style realms have flourished across the city, from UNIVERS’s mothership location in Rockwell to satellite shops for COMME des GARÇONS.

Today, UNIVERS Shangri-La sets its sights further than fashion, embracing a new atmosphere of choice. The store’s Market area offers a wide selection of culture and collectibles, from Astier de Villatte candles that offer olfactory teleportation to art books that hurtle through Interview Magazine’s starry past. 
 

Where everything is a curiosity, taking a seat for prolonged examination may be warranted. Though, even the store’s curious green accent chairs are conversation pieces, commissioned from local designer Rita Nazareno.

Like its earlier counterparts, this UNIVERS welcomes wandering, perusal, settling in. Amid a space designed in collaboration with architect Gabby Lichauco, himself a long-time patron since the days of Homme et Femme, evolution feels right at home.
