Harrods opens Shoe Heaven

Harrods opens Shoe Heaven
The London based luxury department store has unveiled a brand new footwear department with 17 footwear boutiques and 50 luxury brands
The result of one of the store's biggest renovations to date, Shoe Heaven, is the recognition that shoes are becoming a key part of the department store’s business.

Located suitably high-up, on the fifth floor of the Harrods store in London's Knightsbridge district, the space contains 17 footwear boutiques with collections from over 50 of the biggest luxury brands including Christian Dior, Chanel, Christian Louboutin, Valentino, Manolo Blahnik and Louis Vuitton.

Alongside the shoes and the displays, the space also contains velvet banquet seating and private shopping suites, with staff on hand to provide an experience that is "more five-star hotel than shoe department", according to Harrods. The luxe marble-floored space was designed by the late David Collins, the celebrated London interior designer who died last summer.

Harrods is a London based upmarket department store located in Brompton Road in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and founded in 1834 by Charles Henry Harrod. The store has over 90 000 m2 of selling space distributed in over 330 departments making it the biggest department store in Europe.
