Deerfields Mall will be treating shoppers to a seasonal fashion extravaganza during September and October, with catwalk fashion shows from twelve leading brands, and live entertainment to create a memorable shopping experience for everyone.

Brands will showcase their 2016 Autumn/Winter fashion and accessories trends, with latest collections from Abdullah Hussein Khunji, Centrepoint, Max and BHS. Customers also stand a chance to win a 2017 Mercedes Benz E Class when they spend AED 300 in Deerfields Mall, while online customers can win pampering vouchers, every day for 18 days.

Opened in 2013, Deerfields Mall has witnessed 95% of its space leased, with more retailers expressing interest in the mall. Recently, the mall has posted double digit growth in footfall over previous year, amid challenging times in the overall retail market.

For the first time this year, we are hosting three weekends of fashion driven entertainment” said Matthew Reay, Director Asset Management, Deerfields Mall. “During this time our new mall identity will also be unveiled and customers can enjoy our garden area heading into the winter season”.
