Cara&Co

Cara&Co is the first concept store in Russia - it was opened in Moscow, Russia in April 2007 by Australian Company Cara&Co. Pty.ltd. The owner of Cara&Co is Rosa Alpert (formerly Kamenev). Cara&Co's space was designed by Russian architect and designer Alexey Oleshov who is now a Creative Director of the company.

Cara&Cocan not be labeled. It is neither a boutique, nor a shop, nor a department store. But it combines these three elements into a concept store that contains intellectual fashion, art, high-tech, food and music in an inspiring environment.

In 2007 Australian Company – Cara & Co - opened their first ever concept store inRussia, in the grounds of the Centre of contemporary art - completed theEuropean circuit, by adding Moscow to the fashion lover´s itinerary. A year after the opening Cara&Co Moscow was named in the list of The 10 Best Boutiques in the World by The Observer(UK) - the Sunday supplement to The Guardian, one of the world's oldest and most influential media. And again, two years later The Wall Street Journal published Cara&Co in the list of the best boutiques worldwide.

In August 2011 Cara&Co opened its doors in Sydney – in Westfield Shopping Town – the heart of Sydney’s shopping mecca. Cara&Co has been built on a firm philosophy of researching and buying the most cutting edge selections, which reflect the very latest directions from around the world in order to secure those true “pearls” before they inevitably become part of the commercial mass. Most things that can be found in Cara&Co are exclusive for Australia, which makes the experience at Cara&Co so unique.

The main motto behind the store is “No Logos Fashion Only”. Cara&Co showcases intellectual fashion at a luxe level, producing its own aesthetic version of “discreet luxury”. We are for the people who don’t need any logo inorder to express their personality. We have always consciously avoided pieces whose greatest selling point was their famous brand, items that screamed the designer's name, their season, or their owner's favorite place to shop. Cara&Co's philosophy of luxe-class, intellectual fashion has always assumed there would be things in our concept store that weren't for everyone. Things not just anyone would understand or find accessible. And in this lies their value.

In addition to luxe-class clothing and accessories from all over the world, the store offers vintage pieces, selective perfumery, high-jewelry, and a range of gadgets all of which are hand picked with a keeneye for originality and function

TheConcept store itself is like a museum where every piece of interior may betreated as an exhibit. The interior of Cara&Co is apiece of subtle, considered eclecticism. When creating the interior, thedesigners deliberately tried to get away from the usual image of a glitzy boutique, hence the mix of industrial, art-deco, constructivism and renaissance styles and ironic grouping of disparate objects such as 19th century scales from France, giant ball constructed of the Middle Ages’ horse shoes, and10 ancient wooden gates generating the whole wall. All these objects exist cheek-by-jowl, without trying to compete with one another.
