IFC Mall

IFC Mall Review

A quick glance at the directory—Tiffany & Co., Kate Spade, Prada, Gieves & Hawkes—lets you know that the International Finance Centre isn't for the faint of pocket. Designer department store Lane Crawford has its flagship store here, and agnès b.'s whimsical multiboutique fashion and lifestyle flagship sits under a large skylight styled after the shop owner's summer house in the south of France. Even the mall's cinema multiplex is special: the deluxe theaters have super-comfy seats with extra legroom and blankets for those chilled by the air conditioning. If you finish your spending spree at sunset, go for a cocktail at RED or Isola, two posh rooftop bars with fabulous harbor views. The Hong Kong Airport Express station (with in-town check-in service) is under the mall, and the Four Seasons Hotel connects to it. Avoid the mall between 12:30 and 2, when it's flooded with lunching office workers from the two IFC towers.
