Fans of high street brand River Island need not troop down to VivoCity to get their shopping done. The UK import has recently opened a store in Raffles City. With the same comfortable format as the VivoCity outlet (with strong emphasis on visual merchandising), River Island brings in new stocks of casual, yet stylish, skirts, pants, tops, dresses and shirts, chic accessories and a variety of footwear – embellished open-toe sandals, trendy sneakers and platform wedges – every two weeks. Giving in to runway copies has never been so easy.
