Carolina Herrera has released a new limited edition shopper to celebrate the opening of her latest CH Carolina Herrera store in Abu Dhabi.
The shopping bag, which is available exclusively to customers of the Abu Dhabi store, is made of elegant metallic gold leather. The luxury skin is embossed with Carolina Herrera’s signature CH initials and printed with the words Abu Dhabi. A small Swarovski crystal dotted palm tree charm completes the design. Personally I think the effect is a bit gaudy, but metallic handbags rarely rev me. However the price, 3,420 United Arab Emirates Dirham, or roughly $930 US, is pretty reasonable for a limited edition handbag. What do you think of this rare shopper?
The 310-meter-square space, located at the Abu Dhabi Mall, will carry all of the CH Carolina Herrera collections. The boutique features split glass displays, distinctive dressing rooms, and the images of Carolina and her daughter Carolina Jr. throughout.
The Venezuelan designer said she released her more affordable CH Carolina Herrera diffusion line in Abu Dhabi to introduce Saudi women to her products. She’s currently studying the fashion in market in the Middle East and plans to open a signature Carolina Herrera flagship in the region if there’s a favorable reaction to her CH Carolina Herrera store.
Do you think Carolina Herrera will succeed in the Middle East?
