Dubai Debut: Hanro

The Swiss company opened its first boutique in the UAE in The Dubai Mall.

Known for its quality craftsmanship and chic styles, Hanro offers a complete selection of styles from its women’s and men’s collections over 70 square metres. The store concept was designed to accommodate the luxurious standards of the mall with its six-metre high ceilings and elegant lighting that creates a sense of intimacy found typically in European boutiques.

Hanro’s Managing Director Stephan Hohmann is pleased with the first store in the United Arab Emirates: ‘In Dubai, we can present comprehensively what HANRO can offer both women and men with its collections. Dubai is another important ‘window to the world’ for us’!

The boutique is currently offering fall/winter 2018 collection which is inspired by vibrant city life and peaceful mindfulness – two supposedly opposite lifestyles that merge into one.  Featuring urban and contemporary feel-good looks for men and women in a relaxed and mindful state– this is the new “Cosmopolitan Mindfulness”. The line offers elegant winter colours and relaxed autumnal shades, distinguished stripe and check patterns, as well as prints in paisley, floral or kaleidoscope design. Shirts can be worn underneath or as modern outerwear. Kimonos and jackets are real fashion pieces when styled accordingly. Sleepwear and loungewear are merging into a new Living wear category that can be worn and styled in multi-functional ways.

Dubai is the brand’s thirteenth flagship store in the world. Other HANRO boutiques are in Beverly Hills, New York, London, Vienna, Zurich, Amsterdam, and Moscow.
