Beauty and Fashion Dubai

Hello Everyone 🙂

On 25th May, I attended the event for the official opening of Marks & Spencer’s at the Ibn Battuta Mall – the first store in the UAE to feature its new premium boutique shopping experience.

Lots of Media personals and VIPs were present for the ribbon cutting ceremony.

At the new store, customers can also use the ‘Click & Reserve’ In-Store Service to collect online orders within 60 minutes of making their reservation via www.marksandspencerme.com.

The store is huge,about 12,000 sq.ft. and features  the best of Marks & Spencer’s quality clothing and accessories across Womenswear, Menswear, Lingerie, Kidswear and Food. Just in time for summer, customers will be able to shop from the popular Holiday Shop which includes stylish swimwear and cover ups in a variety of bright summer shades, through to cooling, crease free linen shirts and trousers. The Food Hall will include Marks & Spencer’s unrivalled quality and innovative foods.

At the entrance, the striking welcome zone showcases the season’s must-have trends and through its new sleek and contemporary boutique fashion displays, customers will be able to see the extensive breadth of styles, fits and outfit ideas available at the new store.

Stephen Rayfield, Managing Director of M&S MENA Region said: “Customers are at the center of everything we do at Marks & Spencer and we’re delighted to bring our exciting new boutique shopping experience to customers in Dubai for the first time. Combining the best of our latest fashion collections, and fresh M&S Food, together with our inspiring store environment and exceptional customer service, our new store at Ibn Battuta Mall is truly special and we look forward to welcoming customers to our eagerly awaited new store.”

Exceptional quality, stylish clothing collections

All Marks & Spencer collections are designed and developed by a team of skilled international in-house designers based in London. Each season they take inspiration from the international runways, customer research and feedback to create chic, wearable and high-quality ranges that  reflect the key seasonal looks.

 

Outstanding quality food

At the new 1,800 sq. ft. Food Hall, customers will be able to discover a world of the finest global flavours and award-winning food.

Marks & Spencer Food is renowned for leading the way in quality and innovation.
