Wintersale_Step3

The famous clothing store COS “Collection of Style” is currently on sales starting today. All items that were on 30% sales have gone up to 50% sale. So hurry up and benefit from their winter collection to keep you warm from the cold that is hitting us.

COS is open at the Grand Avenues, hurry up and check their collection!

The Grand Avenues…

Too much hype recently going on regarding the opening of Avenues Phase 3 which will be tomorrow morning at 10am. The new phase is going to be huge in space and retails outlets brought in. Reviewing few blogs about the opening was really impressing to see the brands that Al Shayea is bringing to Kuwait. Apparently no need to shop outside Kuwait when everything is here. Some of the major stores opening are Harvey Nichols, COS, PINK, JO Malone, Cheesecake factory, Red Lobster…and much more. I think I will be able to go next week only just to avoid the massive crowd that will invade the new avenues.

Another Empire is on the way to Qatar…

London-based private equity fund Permira is in exclusive talks with the Qatari royal family over the sale of Italian fashion house Valentino and a decision is expected by the end of the month, four sources close to the talks said.

The Qataris, who also own London’s Harrods department store, have been one of the world’s most active investors with assets ranging from stakes in German sports car maker Porsche to shares in British bank Barclays.In March, Qatar Holding bought a 1.03 per cent stake in luxury conglomerate LVMH.

A sale of the entire Permira stake in Valentino would however be the first acquisition of a top fashion house by the Qatari family, where the wife of the Emir, Sheikha Mozah, is known for loving Valentino dresses.In a statement on Monday, Valentino confirmed it was in talks with a potential buyer but did not disclose its identity.

The deal is around 927 million dollars!

The famous red heel designer Christian Louboutin lost a law case against ZARA where he accused them of imitating his red heels concept. I still can’t believe how a famous designer like him will ever think that people wont differentiate between Loubies and ZARA stuff!

Hermes Appartments…

Luxury property developer SC Global Developments has unveiled a private apartment decorated by Hermès at its flagship development, The Marq on Paterson Hil in Singapore.This is the first apartment entirely decorated by Hermès and SC Global said it will not be for sale, but to be used only for private engagements.

HeidI Klum filing for divorce…


Following their widely talked about sudden split, Heidi Klum legally filed for divorce from Seal last week.And today Seal has responded with his own papers regarding the custody of their children.
Supermodel Heidi, 38, asked for joint legal custody of their four children, but she wants primary physical custody.

Seal, 49, has now reportedly requested joint physical custody of the brood, which would mean the children would divide their living time between the two parents.The couple have four children, Leni, seven, Henry, six, Johan, five, and two-year-old Lou, together.
Despite the differences in their papers, sources say that this is merely a technicality and there is no custody fight expected.
