Since 1750 the Milanese Buccellati family has been interested in perfection of beauty. And when the family announced one of their exclusive namesake boutiques would open in the newly remodeled Esquire theater next to Christian Louboutin, we all new it would be a hard task and a labor of love. Fit with a Murano chandelier, the two-level 2,000 square foot boutique will have silk walls and a private shopping area for high-profile shoppers is running behind schedule, as shops usually are with Chicago's construction drama scene. The store was originally scheduled to open this June, but will likely be pushed to July.
