Designer shopping in Dubai

  1. A

    Bauhaus

    High-energy tunes keep girls and boys flipping fast through Evisu denim, Bulzeye tees and Drifter hoodies at this hip lifestyle boutique specialising in nonmainstream fashion, art and music. The store design was inspired by the revolutionary 1920s Bauhaus design movement and mixes all sorts of materials, from acrylic to wood, leather to metal and bricks.

    Jimmy Choo

    Jimmy Choo became a household name after his shoes began making regular cameo appearances on Sex and the City and adorned the feet of stars. Italian architects Vudafieri Partners and Lena Pessoa created the luxurious look of the Dubai flagship store, which features mirrored tables and suede fittings. Remember trying (and dreaming) is free.

    Boutique 1

    Ground zero for prêt-à-porter straight off the runways of Paris and Milan, Boutique 1 is the pinnacle of Dubai’s fashion scene, with designers like Missoni and Yves St Laurent. Its gorgeous new three-storey store on The Walk stocks not only fashionable frocks but also home accessories, beauty products, furniture and even books.

    Emilio Pucci

    Emilio may be dead, but the signature swirly, colour-saturated paisleys he made famous in the 1960s live on. The tailoring is exquisite, the fabric’s drape elegant and the psychedelic prints acid-trip ready.
