Anita Dongre Expands Her Global Legacy with a Landmark Store Opening in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles
The celebrated designer brings the essence of Indian craftsmanship and mindful luxury to Beverly Hills with her first flagship store in Los Angeles, marking a new milestone in global fashion representation.
Celebrated Indian fashion designer Anita Dongre takes another bold step in her global journey with the opening of her 3000 sq. ft. flagship store in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles. With this launch, Dongre becomes the first Indian designer to open a flagship in Beverly Hills, marking her fourth international store after New York City and The Dubai Mall, a true testament to her vision of taking India to the world.
Located at the iconic Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, the new space brings Anita Dongre’s philosophy of mindful luxury to one of the world’s most coveted fashion destinations. It offers a curated selection of handcrafted couture, ready-to-wear, and accessories that celebrate the soul of Indian craftsmanship through a contemporary global lens.
The launch was co-hosted by Mindy Kaling and Poorna Jagannathan, bringing together leading voices of South Asian representation in Hollywood and global fashion, among them Jay Shetty, Radhika Shetty, Anjula Acharia, Payal Kadakia, Francia Raisa, Ramona Young, Lee Rodriguez, Deepica Mutyala, Amrit Kaur, Ami Desai, Nidhi Sunil and Richa Moorjani, all coming together to celebrate the designer’s distinctive blend of luxury, culture and artistry.



Inside, the store reimagines modern-day Rajasthan, a sanctuary of serenity that pays homage to Indian artistry. Every element, from hand-painted Pichhwai walls depicting flora and fauna, to embroidered cushions, bespoke wallpaper, and custom furnishings, has beenhandcrafted by artisans across India. Together, they create an immersive experience that bridges India’s craft heritage with modern design sensibilities.




At its heart stands a breathtaking installation of an elephant matriarch and calf from The Great Elephant Migration, a global art movement supporting sustainability and indigenous craftsmanship. The sculptures, crafted by Indian artisan communities using invasive lantana weeds, serve as a powerful symbol of conservation, compassion, and conscious luxury.

Speaking on this milestone, Anita Dongre shared, “Every creation we make is touched by the hands of skilled women artisans whose stories and traditions inspire our work. Bringing their artistry to Beverly Hills is not only about fashion, it’s about giving India’s craftspeople the global platform they so deeply deserve.”
Rooted in Rajasthan, Dongre has consistently worked toward preserving India’s handloom and embroidery traditions while creating sustainable livelihoods for thousands of craftspeople. With this Beverly Hills opening, she continues her mission of representing India’s design identity on the global stage, one that stands for authenticity, artistry, and purpose.
House of Anita Dongre now has a presence across India, New York City, Dubai, and Los Angeles, redefining modern Indian luxury and further establishing the designer as one of the country’s most influential creative voices internationally.

Marli New York Unveils Madison Avenue Flagship Boutique
New Luxury Space Blends Contemporary Design, Personalised Experiences, and New York-Inspired Architecture
Marli New York has expanded its retail presence with the opening of a new flagship boutique on Madison Avenue in New York City. Located at 785 Madison Avenue, between East 66th and 67th Streets, the 2,418-square-foot store marks the brand’s second location in New York, alongside its existing boutique at Hudson Yards.
Founded in 2014 by Maral Artinian, Marli has steadily built a global presence with boutiques across Europe, the Middle East, and the United States. The newly opened flagship has been designed as more than just a retail destination, offering clients a space to engage more deeply with the brand’s jewellery collections and creative philosophy.
Speaking about the opening, Maral Artinian shared that the boutique was envisioned as a place where clients can experience meaningful interactions with the brand while encouraging creativity, discovery, and personal connection within the Marli universe.
Designed in collaboration with architectural firm Aranda\Lasch, the two-storey boutique reflects Marli’s signature aesthetic through custom-designed furnishings, warm interiors, and thoughtfully curated spaces that encourage conversation and exploration.
The boutique also pays tribute to New York City, a long-standing source of inspiration for Artinian’s designs. The interiors incorporate Indiana limestone sourced from the same quarries used for iconic landmarks such as the Rockefeller Center, the Empire State Building, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.


Touches of teal, Marli’s signature colour, appear throughout the space, adding energy while reinforcing the brand’s modern identity.
One of the standout additions to the flagship is the redesigned M Lounge on the ground floor. Unlike traditional seated lounges seen in other Marli boutiques, the New York version has been reimagined as a more dynamic, studio-inspired environment featuring full-length mirrors that allow visitors to experience the jewellery in an immersive and interactive way.
The boutique also houses the exclusive Marli Club on the second floor — a private, light-filled sanctuary designed to create a more intimate luxury experience. At its centre is a handcrafted statement table created by Artinian in collaboration with New York-based designer Djivan Schapira, reflecting their shared Armenian heritage. The table features shifting blue tones accented by a gold pyramid centrepiece.
Artinian described the flagship as a reflection of the Marli spirit, where design, individuality, and emotion come together to create memorable and meaningful experiences for clients.
The new boutique showcases Marli’s signature collections including Cleo, Avenues, Tip-Top, and Empire, alongside the brand’s recently launched timepiece collection.
Artinian further noted that the Madison Avenue flagship represents a celebration of the city that has continually inspired the brand, while also offering visitors an opportunity to experience the artistry, discovery, and design philosophy that define Marli.
