Shoppers with deep pockets from the Middle East will no longer need to fly to Paris, as a part of Parisian luxury is coming up in the Gulf in the form of Place Vendôme in Qatar. Inspired by the renowned, celebratory neighborhood of Paris, the Place Vendôme is being recreated to bring the unique experience of the ultimate in fashion, luxury, lifestyle and architecture in Lusail.
The Gulf edition of Place Vendôme spans over 800,000 sqaure meter and will host two five-star luxury hotels, serviced apartments, a mall featuring up to 400 different retail outlets and a central entertainment amphitheater. Slated for opening in the third quarter of 2017, it will transport visitors and guests back to Paris, featuring stylized façades, round-top bay windows, and columns with intricately sculpted foliage.
Vogue asserts that Place Vendôme will be more than an exclusive shopping mall. In keeping with the image of the City of Light, it is a destination in itself. The same is true of the two five-star hotels, and apartments with a concierge service on a par with world-class luxury hotels, and of the majestic terrace overlooking a canal that leads out to the sea. 
And last but not least, the cream of Gallic gastronomy will bring its very own star-studded culinary “French touch” into the mix, while coffee shops and other restaurants will provide every type of cuisine imaginable from all over the world, ranging from American steakhouse fare to the delicate flavours of Far Eastern and Italian cooking.
Reflecting one of the finest squares in Paris, the Place Vendôme will be easily accessible with its own Metro station as well as with convenient access to Hamad International Airport, Doha. Home to the leading French, Italian, British and American luxury houses, Place Vendôme also pampers with a private chauffeur service which is available on request to meet the guests on arrival.
Vogue Paris 95th Anniversary party brings the attention back to this upcoming high-end destination in Gulf.
