Along with a just-opened Capri boutique, D Squared is set to open five more boutiques by December. Per DNR, the new shops include "Kiev and Istanbul...planned for the end of May, Hong Kong in September, Moscow in mid-October and Dubai by December." And where LA is concerned: "An in-store shop at Saks Fifth Avenue in Los Angeles is also on the drawing board for August." Designer Dan Caten "explained he and his twin brother, Dean, had complete control over every aspect of the stores, from their locations, window displays and furniture to their seasonal buying budget."
