Dune London is continuing its UK retail expansion spree with the latest opening of a new store in the heart of Buchanan Street, one of Glasgow’s key shopping districts.

The new 1,000 sq ft store is fitted with Dune London’s new, premium design concept, produced in-house by its development team. The store features “noble, polished materials and a neutral colour palette”.
 
Marble and polished stainless-steel feature finishes sit alongside high-sheen white and dovetail elements, “which defines the brand concept creating an exceptional experience for the customer”.

Large illuminated lightboxes in both windows and within the store showcase Dune London’s seasonal imagery.
 
Dune Group’s founder and CEO, Daniel Rubin, said: “Glasgow has always been a key city for Dune. We have been there for 25 years, and our… store has consistently been one of our top performers.”
 
He described the new Buchanan Street store as a “completely original design that really elevates the brand and positions us as the go-to footwear and accessories brand in the city.”
 
And Scotland has been a key destination for the brand since retail reopened fully after the pandemic. Last year it also opened stores at the Caledonia Park outlet village, and in Edinburgh's new St James Quarter.
 
Other key openings were in Broadgate, London, Merry Hill shopping centre in the Midlands and Springfields Outlet in the East of England.
