Shanghai Times Square, a shopping mall on Huaihai Rd, is rallying its world-famous brands. Not only will fashion brands like ZARA and FolliFollie set up shop, but a watch and shoe repair center will be added to the modern shopping mall.

The 'old fashioned'service is a rare sight on the up-to-date Huaihai Rd. The shopping mall thought it would be a considerate gesture for the white-collars working nearby.

Besides the practical service, Shanghai Times Square also introduced a series of renowned brands. Spanish brand ZARA will open its second branch in mid August. Italian MaxMara, Max&Co and French crystal brand Baccarat will also open soon.

A large amount of money has also been spent on updates, including on the elevators, cash registers and lighting systems to create a better shopping environment.
