Trippin UAELife Style8 hours ago6 Views

The Dubai Mall Fashion Avenue is the Dubai Mall’s breathing space. It is far away from the hustle-and-bustle of the food court and within this luxury wing, the marble floor gleams infinitely into the distance like a director-high fashion runway.  It’s been compared with Paris’ Avenue Montaigne, though without the desert heat. For those who appreciate aesthetics and design this will be time well spent.
