Stella McCartney is to open six new stores in the Middle East this year.
According to WWD, the fashion designer will open her first store in Dubai, housed in the Dubai Mall, which opened in December.
She will then find a location in Qatar, later this month, while Jeddah and Riyadh are due to open in the spring, following the recent opening of units in both Bahrain and Kuwait.
This marks the first of three freestanding stores under Stella McCartney Limited’s franchise with Al Tayer.
Her other upcoming stores at Jeddah’s Stars Avenue Mall and Riyadh’s Centria Mall, will also be opened under this franchise.
Her first freestanding store in the Middle East opened in 2008, under a franchise agreement with Almana.
Her Kuwait store, however is a franchise agreement with Al Ostoura International Company.
