The new boutique features the external façade of the building interlocking series of gold and silver blades along with wooden slates framing the main window, an homage to French-Venezuelan artist Carlos Cruz-Diez featuring. 1950s Italian furniture is decorated throughout the store.
This step marks the importance of the Middle East market, which continues to represent a big opportunity for luxury brands.
