Dune London has opened a new flagship store in Manchester, as it expands its presence in the North West.
The 1,596 sq ft shop in the Arndale shopping centre opened last week.
The retailer said the “elevated” store design created an “exceptional experience for customers”.
The flagship features illuminated light boxes in its windows and within the store to showcase its seasonal creative imagery, including its latest CGI-enhanced festive film.

The Dune Group CEO Nigel Darwin said: “We are thrilled to be returning to Manchester Arndale with the opening of our new store.
“We know we have many fans of the Dune London brand and our fabulous shoes and bags in Manchester, and we’re excited to be part of this vibrant retail centre once again”.
It was revealed this month that Dune’s stake sale had been delayed despite the footwear retailer receiving offers from Footasylum owner Aurelius and Next.
The retailer appointed KPMG back in March to find new investors for the business to help accelerate its growth. The buyer would take on founder Daniel Rubin’s controlling stake in the business.
In January, Dune set its eyes on international expansion with store openings planned in the Middle East, Pakistan, India and Nigeria over the past year.
