Shanghai Mart will soon open an International Fashion Exchange (IFEX) to serve as a showroom and trade platform for overseas fashion brands catering to local enthusiasts. The first phase is expected to showcase more than 40 overseas brands in a total space exceeding 2,000 sq m.

Last but not least, Shanghai Mart plays host to a number of designers' studios, some of which double as retail outlets. As fewer people know about the place (many see it, mistakenly, as a trade-fair venue), you also get to enjoy thinner crowds and a much more pleasurable shopping environment.

Spending half a day here all but guarantees two things: you will avoid the crowd, and stand out from it, too.
