What’s your pet peeve about shopping online? Do you get annoyed when your online buy arrives and the size is completely off or it looks nothing like it did on the website? Well, online store Zalora hopes to put an end to inaccurate sizing and representation with its “click-and-mortar” store.
So how different is The Zalora Shop @ Ion from other online stores that venture offline? Plenty! The store functions more like a showroom than a retail store. A curated selection of exclusive brands sold on the Zalora website like River Island and Material Girl are displayed by theme – think party, summer, and more.

Pick and try on the pieces you like. If you decide that you want to buy, head over to the self-serve express checkout counters to scan the barcode and make your purchase online. Now here’s the difference – instead of carting your new buys around town, your Zalora purchase will be delivered to your mailing address. This hands-free shopping is ideal when you are meeting your honey for a romantic dinner or heading off for a night of fun with your pals after shopping.
This digital interactive shopping experience allows you to touch, feel and try the pieces you might be hesitant to buy online. Plus, if you do want to exchange any of the pieces bought on the Zalora website, just drop it off at the store for a hassle-free exchange or refund!
The Zalora Shop @ ION is located at #B2-04/05 ION Orchard until end January 2015. For more information, go to www.zalora.sg/.
