Dolce & Gabbana Collaborates with Dar Global to Bring High Fashion to the Pristine Maldives

The Maldives, often hailed as a heavenly paradise on Earth, is about to receive a glamorous upgrade with the introduction of a luxury hotel by the renowned Italian fashion label Dolce & Gabbana. In a partnership with Saudi property developer Dar Global, the brand aims to combine high fashion with opulent hospitality in its debut real estate venture.

Ziad El Chaar, CEO of Dar Global, expressed excitement about the collaboration, stating, “We are delighted to welcome the globally acclaimed brand ambassador of Italian excellence, Dolce & Gabbana, into real estate and hospitality. This partnership embodies a unique interpretation of the brand’s Italian essence, further solidifying our commitment to delivering extraordinary living experiences and investment opportunities to our esteemed clients. We are confident this alliance will be a resounding success and eagerly anticipate bringing Dolce & Gabbana’s vision to life.”

While Dolce & Gabbana is renowned for its style and influence in the fashion industry, Dar Global has earned a prominent reputation as a real estate powerhouse, having undertaken notable projects in various locations such as the UAE, Qatar, Oman, Bosnia, the UK, and Spain. Some of their remarkable ventures include the Urban Oasis Tower in collaboration with Missoni, the Da Vinci Tower featuring interiors by Pagani, the Les Vagues residences designed by Elie Saab, and the W Residences Dubai – Downtown.

Cheval Blanc, owned by luxury goods conglomerate LVMH, already boasts a luxury resort in the Maldives, adding to the growing allure of the destination.

Specific details regarding the project remain scarce, including the anticipated completion date. However, it is worth noting that fashion brands have recently ventured into real estate. Giorgio Armani, for instance, plans to open an ultra-luxury hotel in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, while Bulgari has also made a successful foray into the industry. Even luxury watchmakers Jacob & Co. are constructing the world’s tallest residential tower—a 100-story masterpiece—in the heart of Dubai.

As Dolce & Gabbana joins forces with Dar Global, anticipation grows for the fusion of high fashion and lavish hospitality that awaits travelers and investors in the pristine landscapes of the Maldives.
