When anyone things of Dubai, they have an image of luxury, and shopping in Dubai is one of the fabulous attractions that magnetizes people to this wonderful golden land. Visiting a Dubai outlet mall is an exhilarating experience: often designed as a beautiful piazza, not only are the best goods in the world on offer at the lowest prices; there are also wonderful theaters, cinemas, exhibitions, art galleries, bowling alleys, musical bands, gyms, indoor sky slopes, spas, beauty salons, countless inviting restaurants and cafes, and play groups for children where your young ones can be securely looked after.
If the heat is soaring outside, then the wonderfully air conditioned malls, full of exotic trees and plants along the walkways, are the places to be. Here you can take your time from morning to late evening, shopping till you drop; and if you are with your partner or family, and want to shop alone, then there is bound to be so many things for them to do there at the same time, and you can arrange to meet up at a cafe later, so they can help you with your bags!
One of the most prestigious points of call is the opulent Dubai Mall, which houses a vast array of cutting edge shops full of luxury goods, and close to half a million square feet of the top fashion brands, making it the largest fashion collection in the world. Here you can enjoy looking at the latest fashion trends similar to these forest green prom dress trends here. There are also accessories for both men and women, and pick up bargains at comparatively reduced prices. Another tourist favorite is the breathtaking Mall of the Emirates which boasts a magnificent skylight, stupendous marble flooring, and countless designer stores, boutiques, hotels such as the famous Kempinski; and department stores, including a Harvey Nichols to rival the London Knightsbridge branch.
