Daslu Sao Paulo

I've never been to Daslu Sao Paulo .

The next stop on the "coolest stores" tour is Brazil's most famous retail jewel. Daslu has moved to new accommodations, which house forty stores and provide a helipad on the roof. You will be greeted by porters at the door and each patron is assigned a "Dasluzete", a shopgirl or maid dressed in a starched white uniform. She will serve you bottomless flutes of Veuve Clicquot or espresso shots. Cross the marble floor by golf cart. One of its most unique features is the fact that much of the store is off limits to men. Because so much space has been allotted to women's clothing and since there are no dressing rooms, shoppers have taken to disrobing next to the clothing rack. In the high tech department, you will find audio systems and Jaguar convertibles. The one of a kind Perspex floor houses rows of vintage toy cars.

That I'd like to see.
