First store in Kuwait and third GCC store for the Belgian established luxury leather goods brand
Kuwait City, 25 August 2015: 360 MALL, Kuwait's iconic shopping mall owned by Tamdeen Shopping Centers, has brought the world's oldest luxury leather goods manufacturer, Delvaux, to Kuwait for the very first time.
The Delvaux boutique was opened in partnership with the Dubai Holding Group.
The Belgian brand was founded in 1829. In 2011 Delvaux became a part of the First Heritage Brands group, which already included the Sonia Rykiel and Robert Clergerie labels. This joining ensured the worldwide expansion of the brand.
Internationally recognized, the House of Delvaux has earned its reputation by remaining true to its values and for its savoir-faire craftsmanship, as well as for the supreme quality of its creations. Each Delvaux product is crafted by hand in its own workshops located in Brussels and France.
Over the past two centuries Delvaux has created more than 3,000 handbag designs. Le Brillant, Delvaux's iconic handbag, has been created especially for the 1958 World's Fair. Other masterpieces have also made a mark worldwide in the history of fine leather goods, notably Le Tempête (1967), Le Pin (1972), Le Madame (1977) and Le Givry (1977). Architectural lines, daring proportions, and innovative shapes are - and have always been - key components of the House's vocabulary.
The house that has enjoyed the title of Official Supplier to the Belgian Royal Court since 1883 is all set to welcome its Kuwaiti customers to discover the world of Delvaux and experience the true essence of luxury.
Claudia Lopusinska, Marketing Manager, 360 MALL said: "360 MALL is famous for the quality of its shopping and entertainment, and the sophistication of its ambience. Over the last six years the mall has become a premier shopping destination in Kuwait. With the opening of Delvaux, we are further enhancing our retail offerings."
