Singapore's Orchard Road Just Got a Major Luxury Refresh — Here's What's New
From Jacob & Co.'s first standalone boutique to Chow Tai Fook's Jewel Changi flagship, ten new stores are reshaping the city's shopping scene

Singapore's luxury shopping scene has entered a new chapter in 2026, with a wave of newly opened and redesigned boutiques spreading from Orchard Road out to Changi Airport.
Jacob & Co. made its Singapore debut with a standalone boutique inside Takashimaya, developed in partnership with Sincere Fine Watches, featuring diamond-quilted wall panels and a star-patterned ceiling built to showcase both its high-complication timepieces and its jewellery line for the first time locally.
A few floors away, Dolce & Gabbana unveiled a vibrant, unmistakably Sicilian-themed boutique also at Takashimaya, while another opening debuted the Spring-Summer 2026 collection alongside house icons like the Future sneaker for shoppers who favour concept and craft over overt logos. At Jewel Changi Airport, Chow Tai Fook opened its first new-image store in Southeast Asia, marked by a head-turning "Timeless Red" facade that balances modern retail design with references to Chinese cultural heritage, including exclusive pieces from the Palace Museum collection. Spread across ION Orchard, Takashimaya and Paragon as well as the airport, this cluster of openings signals that Singapore's position as a regional luxury retail hub is only strengthening — arriving just in time for the festive shopping season.
