Fashionslave

Part of Zurich's newest shopping destination opened its doors this month: Im Viadukt. The viaducts exist since 1894 and are used as a pathway for trains. After renovating the viaducts the last couple years, they decided to offer the space underneath them to various kinds of stores or restaurants. The renovation work is reaching its end and the first batch of stores opened two weeks ago. I am kind of disappointed when I look at the list of stores that made it in the end, but there are still some very interesting ones – like Fashionslave.


Fashionslave is situated in viaduct number 29. It's a concept store offering exclusively menswear from labels such as Raf Simons, Henrik Vibskov and Odeur. Besides that, it's a place for artists and designers to collaborate and showcase their stuff. There's also a hair and make-up artist available if you need more than just a change in clothes.

I created a new category called Zurich City Guide to collect all my entries so far about shops and other places in Zurich but more importantly also for the ones in the future.

  2. Judging from the pictures it seems as though they used the space very well. I'm especially drawn to the stone walls. I will for sure head over there when I visit Zurich(optimism!)

  4. I totally overslept the opening of the store cause of the pre-party :( but it seems as if it's worth to go and have a look!

  5. I love fashionslave's hanging geometric white 'racks' and the vintage looking barber shop swivel chairs. And the Zurich City guide would be invaluable the next time I get an opportunity to visit!

  12. A very slick-looking place with the added grace of natural stone. I love it! This store should stand the test of commercial overturn.
    I really enjoy seeing different shops around the world.
