Down The Avenue

Nope, I’m not referring to the biggest Mall in Kuwait, Avenue Collection is one of Bahrain’s fashion mazes offering the chicest of the chic clothes and accessories. Located at Al Alai Mall, Avenue Collection is a place where you can let your eyes and fingers skim through the various everyday collection with glee, swinging from one beautifully stacked rack to the other.

Since their opening in 2001, Avenue’s direction has moved away from the mainstream by carrying lines from emerging, and independent designers worldwide and smaller fashion-forward labels. A lot of the lines they carry are UK based and who have started out in Camden Market or Portobello. Avenue Collection has a trove of choices that cater to your “fashion-ating” needs

Their stock ranges from bags and accessories to denim and dresses. Mina UK, one of the lines they carry, are so easy to pick up with their reasonable price points, and then you have Sophie Hulme a recent Kingston College graduate who started her own line last season and was immediately picked up by Selfridges in London and many high end boutiques worldwide.

They also carry the famous Jennifer Behr Hair accessories, and more styles from American label Single LA. They have recently added a new UK based label to their collection called People's Market which was created in 2002 by designer Dexter Wong. Their line is composed of youthful easy styles with playful prints and appliqués for everyday living. People's Market is also carried in Selfridges London and House of Fraser.

They will be offering 10% discount on sale and non-sale items to Confashions From Kuwait readers upon mentioning "Confashions". Offer is valid until 15th of May.

Saks In Bahrain
