Dubai Mall extension is now open All photos by Pawan Singh / The National
The light-filled and bright area can be reached directly from the existing Fashion Avenue via a striking lit-up archway where the Hermes store used to be.
Shoppers are able to walk through the space, however many of the boutiques have yet to open.
Hermes will have its new boutique in the extension, as will Gucci, Mikimoto, Symphony and Dior boutiques as the new area will focus on high-end fashion.
Some of the stores will spread over two levels allowing for big shop fronts to get creative with elaborate window displays.
Before the extension there were approximately 1,200 shops, 200 food and beverage outlets and 3.77 million square feet of gross leasable area.
We're looking forward to a bit of window-shopping in the new extension.
