Obsessed With Shoes: Stuart Weitzman Opens its First Boutique in Dubai

For those of you obsessed with shoes, acclaimed American shoe designer Stuart Weitzman announced today the opening of its first retail boutique in Dubai, through the brand’s new partnership with The Jashanmal Group. The new store will be located within the Level Shoe District at The Dubai Mall, the new 815 square foot boutique which opened its doors to the public late last month.

Designed by acclaimed Italian avant-garde architect Fabio Novembre, the Dubai boutique features a contemporary retail concept in addition to the iconic Stuart Weitzman interior ribbon design. Unique features include a mosaic tile accent wall and Alphano grey stone floors that add design flare in coupled with the innovative ribbon shelving while a palette of vanilla and gray tones serves to create to showcase Stuart Weitzman’s shoes and handbags.

“We love Dubai,” said Wayne Kulkin, Vice Chairman of Stuart Weitzman. “The consumer here understands luxury and fashion better than anyone else. We think within the fashion industry, Dubai stands shoulder to shoulder with New York and London and is a very important market for our Middle East plan.” While Weitzman is renowned for his sexy stilettos and evening sandal designs, especially among celebrities, the store will offer his complete fashion collection including boots, flats, career and weather. Stuart Weitzman understands that a great shoe is more than form or function; it’s about making a woman feel beautiful. For over 25 years, his designs have garnered a very loyal customer base as accessible luxury footwear with great fit, style and comfort. We are eager here in Dubai for this great addition to the city’s fashion landscape.

The Stuart Weitzman brand has a fashionable global presence with retail stores in the United States, Italy, Singapore, France, China, Malaysia, Middle East, Indonesia, Australia, Hong Kong, Greece, Mexico, Spain, Monaco, Germany, Canada, Switzerland and Russia.
