The French luxury fashion brand's intimate gathering was graced by the most fashionable faces of Malaysian society

Last December, Berluti—known for exquisite craftsmanship of quality leather goods and clothing for men—celebrated its new store in Suria KLCC in partnership with leading Indonesian luxury retail company, Time International. Irwan Danny Mussry, president and CEO of Time International, shared that the new store will cater to "the needs of the modern and sophisticated gentlemen."

Behind its wide glass façade, which includes a shop window and a light box, the collections of men's shoes, leather goods, ready-to-wear and accessories are displayed to highlight the unique artisanship and bespoke work.

The 'full grain' club ambience flawlessly complements the speakeasy reference of the Patina Wall, a genuine ode to Berluti’s savoir-faire.
