Shopping for shoes just got more exciting

Allegedly responding to the growing demand from its customers including GCC women, expats, and tourists (apparently we’re all major footwear fanatics) Galeries Lafayette decided to launch a shoe destination, known as the Shoe Box, located on the first floor. She spoke, they listened, they delivered – that’s pretty impressive customer service.

The modern concept of Shoe Box was designed by an Italian architectural firm. Floodlit by natural light, it is characterised by high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, mirrors, and sleek designs. Essentially it is the shoe box that fairy tales are made of.
