During this period, there is a high probability that the seller will quickly agree to make a discount.

Furs

The quality of a fur coat depends not only on the manufacturer, but also on the supplier of raw materials - fur. The greatest demand is for mink products - whole, sheared, plucked. New material processing technologies give wool hair a soft and fluffy appearance. Plucked minks are somewhat more expensive due to the complexity of the procedure for removing hard fibers.

Sable fur costs 2-3 times more, since its pile is quite dense and elastic, and can be easily restored even after several years of wear. Fur coats made from lynx are highly prized. They are superior in quality to mink products. Due to the natural color of lynx, the material does not require chemical coloring. Raccoon fur is cheaper - no more than $2000. Nevertheless, these fur coats retain heat well and do not lose their decent appearance for a long time.

Beaver fur coats are distinguished by good wear. The fur of this animal is insensitive to weather influences - rain, snow, wind. For less than $3,000 you can purchase a product made from astrakhan fur. Many women prefer these particular fur coats, since the animal’s skin has a thin, velvety tint. The material is expensive, but despite its visual appeal it is thin and fragile. In the shops of the emirate you can even buy fur coats made from Canadian fox inexpensively. They are very comfortable and look impressive thanks to the bright color and long hair. Blackglame products are distinguished by good density and strength of the material. Black mink coats from a famous American brand cost from $4,000 in the UAE. Blackknuff fur coats and graphite mink cost the same. The latest model is gaining popularity nowadays due to its unusual gray-blue hue, which is achieved as a result of selective breeding of animals on special farms. The color of these fur coats is natural, so they retain their natural shade for several years and do not turn yellow or fade.

Silver fox fur is inexpensive, the quality of which is beyond doubt. Thanks to new technologies, the fur of this animal acquires knitted plasticity. The price of such a fur coat depends on the percentage of silver: the higher the content of hair of this color in the fur, the more expensive the product. The undoubted advantage of the product is the long pile, which retains heat for a long time.

In local stores you can buy not only women's, but also men's sheepskin coats. These products are the most budget option, their price ranges from $1000-4500. Men should pay attention to short fur coats made of wolf fur. The hair of this animal is quite long - up to 8 cm. The material is durable, elastic, and warm due to the harsh conditions of the wolf's existence. This fur is not as beautiful as others, but with proper tailoring it looks quite stylish. This short fur coat is inexpensive - no more than $2000.

Shops with fur coats

Dubai has a large number of stores selling fur products. These include small shops, regular stores, and large shopping centers. A huge advantage when buying fur coats in Dubai is the fact that most of the stores specializing in this product are located in Nasser Square. You don't have to travel around the whole city to see all the stores selling fur coats. Just go around the shops in Nasser Square, the most popular of which are the following: Al Futtaim tower, Al Owais, Baniyas bld, Baniyas tower, Deira tower, Land Mark Plaza Hotel, Al Sheikha Latifa Bint Hamdan Building, Twin towers.

All stores specializing in fur coats come in two types: private and branded. As a rule, private departments present models from several brands, while branded departments offer customers fur coats from one factory. Before you start looking at fur products, it’s worth remembering that the quality is much better in branded departments.

When shopping on the streets of Dubai, so-called kamaks are often intruded upon, offering to help in finding a store with fur coats. They assure that this service will be absolutely free. But you need to know that this is a real deception, and in the end the chosen product may turn out to be 10% more expensive, or even more. You should drive such barkers away from you, otherwise you can run into them in the store, and they will assure the seller that they brought you there.

Tips for shopping fur coats in Dubai

• In the summer, UAE fur stores offer sales where you can find fur coats at a 90% discount. But it is wrong to assume that these will be the best Italian products. Sellers are trying to sell stale and not the best goods. Exclusive models can wait for their buyer.
• If your purchase is initially limited by budget, take a closer look at fur coats manufactured in Chinese factories, but designed under the brand names of famous brands in Greece or Italy. It is quite possible to find a relatively high-quality product at an affordable price.
• Fur buyers are a good feeding ground for intermediaries of all kinds. They will appear out of nowhere in your hotel, in transport, or right on the street. Whether or not to follow their advice is up to each individual to decide, but one should not forget that the mediator acts selflessly . The store owner, seeing an escort next to you, understands that he is obliged to pay the escort 10% of the purchase price. And he will not get the payment from his own pocket. Therefore, the best thing to do is to go shopping yourself.
• And, of course, don’t forget to bargain . The Emirates is a country where the dispute over the final price is part of the mandatory purchase and sale program. You will actually be able to save 10 percent or more of the original amount.

Selection of fur coats

There are several simple ways to determine the quality of products. If the fur is natural, then when stroking it you can hear a slight sound; the fibers do not fall out and do not form bald patches, but lie smoothly and neatly in a continuous layer. To check the natural color of a fur coat, you need to run a damp cloth over it: the fur must retain its color, otherwise you are probably dealing with a fake. If there is a lining sewn to the inside of the fur coat, you should not buy it, since the manufacturer most likely tried to hide some flaws in this way.

When folding the floors, the fur must remain clean, soft and elastic - only in this case can you be sure that it is of high quality. When feeling the fibers, your palm should not feel any grease or sticky areas.

To finally make sure of the quality of the product, blow on the fur: it should not diverge in different directions and expose the skin. Buyers must be extremely careful when choosing fur coats, since if the quality is poor, they will not be able to return the product: a similar system does not work in the emirates. Only a few prestigious salons - and even then with problems - accept back their products. Men can also choose a short fur coat or coat at an affordable price – $2000–3000.

La Vincy fashion – an exclusive approach to fur coats.

Larisa with a fur coat of her own design.

the La Vincy fashion fur salon began with a rather sad event - the collapse of the USSR. The young microbiologist Larisa Esipenko, like many of us in those years, found herself in a very uncertain reality and without any hopes for a bright future. And when memories of the bright past had completely ceased to bring food to the mind and body, good old friends invited her to work as a salesman in a fur store in Dubai . Here Larisa spent several years exploring the world of coats, furs and... the properties of her clients.

At first, our customers were happy with the opportunity to cheaply buy at least something called a “mink coat.” However, very soon they began to understand different types of fur and began to use words such as Blackglama, Black NAFA, cross, dissolution... And then Larisa began to notice that among customers a request began to appear for more interesting and fashionable models of fur coats, albeit not so cheap. And she herself had a growing allergy to mink coats that were identical to a soldier’s uniform.

This is how the idea was born to create your own store of exclusive fur coats for the most demanding, fashionable part of customers, and in 2005 this idea was brought to life. Microbiology was completely forgotten and life was filled with serving a new passion - fashion and beauty. Constant trips to Italian fur factories, meeting fur designers, exhibitions and... a little accounting - all this brought both pleasant fatigue and satisfaction every day.

More to come... Larisa not only selected the most interesting fur coats from the best Italian factories, bought exhibition pieces at exhibitions in Milan and Hong Kong, but also took the risk of developing her own models. Well, maybe it’s not quite like that to develop. New ideas just began to appear, and she began to implement them with the help of Italian designers and sew them there in Italy. Such designer fur coats are sold in the salon under its own brand La Vincy fashion . Definitely exclusive, though!

This is where I would like you to dwell a little on the phrase “under your own brand” . Over more than twenty years of the wild market, you and I have already realized that in most cases “businessmen” do the exact opposite - they buy cheap Chinese fur robes, sew labels of well-known companies on them and sell them to us! What is Mrs. Larisa Esipenko doing?! – She finds an expensive Italian designer

, and one who, in the style of his work, fits the intended model, sews a fur coat
in an expensive Italian factory
and... sews on it an as yet unknown label!!!
Nah! I don’t know what they call it in business, but something like “we sing glory to the madness of the brave!” comes to mind! However, judging by the fact that the store has been successfully operating since 2005, this does not amount to suicide. Maybe, after a while, one of us will say - I bought a fur coat from La Vincy back when no one knew about them.

Some advice for buyers

Those wishing to purchase a quality product must select fur themselves. You should not buy fur coats from sellers who, on their own initiative, advertise and offer the product. Branded salons, confident in the quality of their products, do not practice this method of attracting customers. You should beware of low prices for long fur coats: they will charge you at least $1000 for it (counterfeits cost less than this amount). As a rule, such manufacturers copy popular Italian and Greek models. These fur coats do not fit well on the figure and look angular from the outside.

The Emirates is an eastern country where it is customary to bargain for goods, including fur coats. Often sellers set an approximate price, so if you haggle, you will probably knock off at least 10% of the amount. The main thing is not to be shy and choose the product carefully.
