Dune London is pleased to announce the opening of its new concept store inside Yas Mall, Abu Dhabi.
The new store boasts a 1,206 sqmt sales floor and is fitted with Dune London’s new premium concept, designed in-house by the brand’s store development team.
The new store concept brings together a neutral colour palette of gold, stone and warm cream tones to enhance Dune London’s women’s and men’s premium footwear and accessories collections.
Textured and tonal hessian-coloured wall coverings combined with bold, spacious seating areas work to accentuate the elevated store design and create an engaging experience for customers.
The bespoke concept environment visually implements Dune London’s brand codes; their signature DD logo monogram serving as the perfect backdrop to showcase their premium collections.
Dune London’s newest concept will help increase its overall visibility in the shopping centre, with the storefront showcasing a striking new window tower with integrated media screen.
The new store adds to Dune London’s expanding store footprint in the GCC, totalling 53 standalone stores.
The Yas Mall store will house Dune London’s newly launched AW24 women’s, accessories and men’s collections. With over 30 years of design expertise, Dune London incorporates its heritage house style into everything it does. London born, globally worn, the brand continues to be inspired by the diverse and eclectic city it is proud to call home.
For women, highlights include the return of the brand’s original 90’s house leopard print, a sculptural new comma heel, an XL version of its woven Deliberate bag and hero colourway night cherry.
For men, signature silhouettes are infused with a contemporary feel for AW24. An elegant blend of classic design, modern style, rugged soles, contrasting uppers and premium materials bring new life to the brand’s collection.
Drawing on archive prints, heritage fabrics and bespoke detailing, Dune London’s unique handwriting and distinctive brand codes lie at the heart of its design.
