The second floor is the ultimate destination for fine and high jewelry in Beverly Hills, with limited edition and one-of-a-kind pieces from world-renowned jewelry brands including Chopard, Graff, Lorraine Schwartz, Repossi and Vhernier, and new additions to Saks Fifth Avenue Beverly Hills including Anita Ko and FoundRae.

As part of the unprecedented shopping destination, Saks Fifth Avenue partnered with leading luxury fashion houses to create significant boutique spaces dedicated to each house throughout the store, including Dior, Gucci and Louis Vuitton on the second floor, and CHANEL on the fifth floor.

STORE DESIGN

The Saks Fifth Avenue Store Planning and Design team collaborated with the award-winning team of retail architects and advisors at Arcadis (formerly CallisonRTKL) to transform the store and bring Saks Fifth Avenue's distinct brand identity to life while paying tribute to the building's history. Design highlights include:

• Introduction of vendor-designed shops throughout the store creates a fresh and interesting shopping experience, allowing customers to access intimate brand experiences within Saks Fifth Avenue.
• Transformation of the top floor into an experiential destination for personal shopping and styling at the Fifth Avenue Club reinforces Saks Fifth Avenue's commitment to inspire customers through unique and highly personalized shopping experiences.
• The store's grand Regency-style marble staircase and central skylight are accentuated by airy, pearlescent white atrium spaces and reflective columns on each floor to carry natural light throughout the store and create a brighter shopping experience.
• Metallic accents and playful pops of color including richly hued rugs, statement furniture pieces and vibrant wallcoverings add visual excitement to the store's neutral color palette.
• Artful fixtures such as chandeliers that double as unexpected art pieces appear throughout the store to create a fun and visually stimulating shopping environment.
• Elevators feature a milky dichroic laminate, a subtle nod to the OMA/Rem Koolhaas-designed escalator at the iconic Saks Fifth Avenue New York flagship.
