Feeding the desire of today’s ultra-selective, globally influenced and information hungry city folk is no easy task. But for Brusselaars in this community who crave the cutting edge, Hunting and Collecting, a whitewashed 300 sq. meter retail space in the city’s downtown fashion district has been developed to cater for this exact audience.

Footwear, accessories, design objects, and press dedicated to modern culture are sparingly displayed in the futuristic gallery-like space, which is transformed each season with installations focusing on a specific theme. A common thread that perceptive shoppers will notice when perusing the product and brand mix is a distinct sense of individuality and personal style. Pieces from brands like Stampd, Acne, Kenzo, Common Projects, Lemaire, Pigalle Paris, Carven echo what’s cool on the street in Brussels but also in progressive cities around the world.
