Marie France Van Damme, http://www.mariefrancevandamme.com the Hong Kong-based designer known for her globally influenced line of luxury resort, swim, and ready-to-wear, continues to expand her presence worldwide with the opening of the brand’s twelfth boutique in November 2018 in Las Vegas. With boutiques located in some of the world’s most iconic luxury travel and shopping capitals, Marie France Van Damme’s new boutique will be located in Wynn Las Vegas’ Wynn Plaza, the resort’s unique new 70,000-square-foot retail destination located on Las Vegas Boulevard.

Situated on the ground floor of Wynn Plaza (3131 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, Nevada) the 900 square-foot boutique will offer Marie France Van Damme’s extensive luxury resort, Beach Bridal and ready to wear lines and range of accessories, including evening dresses, resort wear, bathing suits, and caftans. The boutique will offer the best of both worlds: luxe day resort wear and chic evening looks.

Marie France Van Damme’s collection of ‘Dolce Vita’ essentials is a return to the glamorous roots of resort wear with a muted palette of silver and gold, hand embroidery and opulent fabrics, from French lace to metallic-toned Italian weaves and featherweight Chinese silks. Signature pieces such as the Boubou caftan provide instant glamour.

The new boutique will incorporate Marie France Van Damme’s signature aesthetic, which blends subtle Asian influences and elegant simplicity with teak wood, bronze panels, and embossed crocodile leathers with textiles and finishes that can be found in the designer’s home as well as her flagships in Hong Kong and London

“We are excited to join Wynn Plaza and expand our presence on the West Coast,” says Marie France Van Damme. “Las Vegas is the perfect destination to wear Marie France Van Damme from day to evening, poolside to dinner. Like me, our customer travels around the world, and she needs to find things that will look beautiful day as well as night. Our collection was made for Las Vegas and the West Coast contemporary lifestyle.”

Collections are not distinguished by season, but relevance. Whether it’s evening wear or day dress, a silk caftan or city pajama or swimwear, Marie France Van Damme’s philosophy remains the same: “What you wear should always give you glamour. Glamour without the fuss and bother,” says Marie France Van Damme.

Marie France Van Damme will join Wynn Plaza’s unique collection of luxury boutiques including the newly opened Bottega Veneta boutique, Saint Laurent, and the only permanent Louis Vuitton Men’s store in the country. Distinctive brands that can only be found in Las Vegas at Wynn Plaza include Cipriani, Urth Caffé, SoulCycle, Céline, Balmain, Loewe, James Perse, Cotton Citizen, and Vitra Eyewear, with more to be announced in the coming months.
