Argentinian label La Martina has opened a second flagship shop at the Emirates Mall, following an earlier one at the Dubai Mall.
La Martina’s owner, Lando Simonetti, says the opening was prompted by ‘double-digit growth in most prominent markets … including the UAE.
‘Our UAE sales are higher than many other major global markets.’
The new outlet, with 400 m² floor space, has a complete range, including the core polo line. The décor reflects a sumptuous living room, marrying the La Martina style with Middle Eastern tastes. Antique furniture has been shipped from Argentina, the company says.
The Emirates Mall location joins others around the world, including Saint-Tropez, Deauville, Megève, Madrid, Mykonos, Capri and Puerto Banús. Last year, HM Queen Elizabeth II opened La Martina’s polo pro shop at the Guards Polo Club in Windsor.
