Get your feet ready for Aquazzura’s newly opened flagship boutique in the Dubai Mall fashion extension.
Creative Director and founder Edgardo Osorio, in partnership with Etoile Group, hosted a VIP dinner at the Park Hyatt hotel to celebrate the first stand alone store in Dubai. He said:
“I’m so happy to finally be able to welcome all the wonderful Aquazzura clients of the country into our new home at The Dubai Mall. I wanted the boutique to be inspired by the charming, historic architecture of the region, but in a contemporary way.”
Looking for the perfect balance between Arabic elements and the modern design of the brand, the interior pays homage to the beautiful Islamic architecture, and specifically its Mosques. The sophisticated space displays some of the Aquazzura distinctive codes, such as the golden detailing and the black and white combination.
The Arabic decoration is dominant in the gold-framed boutique windows and niches with solid brass shelves, both in form of arches. While the recurring motif of the eight- pointed star, often seen in the Middle-Eastern tilework, is featured in the ceiling tasselation and in the form of a star-cut hand- woven wool carpet positioned in the center of the Boutique floor where clients can try on the latest collections from the Italian shoe brand.
