Reflecting on this special occasion, Manish Malhotra shared, “I feel emotional for it has always been my cherished dream to bring the rich artistry of Indian designs, exquisite embroideries, and craftsmanship to a global platform. Representing Modern-day India, that is also deeply rooted in tradition, culture, and luxurious heritage but constantly evolving. This store reflects my warm house, where every person who walks in is embraced by Indian culture and hospitality.
The exquisite store was meticulously crafted by the talented Gauri Khan, who collaborated closely with Manish Malhotra to materialize his grand vision for his inaugural global store.
“A fusion of opulence and grandeur, designing Manish’s store in Dubai was a great experience. My designs tie in the majestic creations of Manish clothes to highlight and showcase every detail as we follow similar design sensibilities.”, said Gauri Khan.
