Danish, modern streetwear design opens Bangkok store

The contemporary fashion and lifestyle brand Wood Wood, of Denmark, has arrived to Bangkok for real.

The Copenhagen-based streetwear brand joins forces with UnCENSORED and has opened a so called shop-in-shop. UnCENSORED is a prominent local retailer in the street luxury segment, and is located within Bangkok’s latest luxury department store EmQuartier Shopping Complex at The Helix Quartier.

The Danish brand’s Creative Director and Menswear Designer Karl-Oskar Olsen designed the Wood Wood store, utilizing a graphic print from the Wood Wood archive and custom fittings.

“For the space in UnCENSORED Bangkok we wanted to create something that reflects Wood Wood´s brand philos¬ophy concerning Creativity, Quality and Attitude. The minimalistic approach with white walls and concrete floor is juxtaposed with a strong graphic print from the Wood Wood archives. We wanted to create this contrast while keep¬ing the space simple to let the clothing stand out on the rails,” said Karl-Oskar Olsen.

The opening in Bangkok is part of Wood Wood’s international expansion and desire to be present in relevant markets with different shop concepts. UnCENSORED and Wood Wood have been partners for several years and the shop-in-shop came as a natural next-step due to the increasing demand in the market.
