If you are determined to go shopping at Mega - any of the shopping centers, then you should set aside at least one day, or even several, for such a trip. The reason for such a time-consuming event is not only the remoteness of the shopping center and not only the huge number of boutiques (more than 250), but also the presence of hypermarkets, restaurants, an ice skating rink, children's playgrounds and other things.

As for the features of the shopping center, it is an extraordinary large-scale view of Moscow, which opens in good weather.

Address: Tsvetnoy Boulevard, building No. 15, building 1

"Okhotny Ryad"

The Okhotny Ryad shopping center is considered the fashion center of Moscow youth. And it fully justifies this name, since it has a large number of boutiques that sell goods from fashion brands, and at quite affordable prices. In this center, trade takes place on 3 levels, where boutiques such as OGGI, Tvoye, Stradivarius, New Yorker, Terranova, Incity, Bershka, Calliope are located, as well as Lacoste, LOVE, Zara, Adilisik, Karen Millen, Kira Plastinina, GAP, Glenfield, Concept Club, Motivi, Oasis, River Island and many others.

Address: metro, Domodedovskaya station, MKAD, 24th km, at the intersection with the Kashirsky highway.

"Seasons"

This shopping center opened in 2007, and is a unique facility even today. First of all, because he deals only with luxury goods, and also because he deals not only with trade, but also with fashion itself. It is called “a gallery of style and fashion.” Here, on 6 floors, there are 150 boutiques and real fashion giants. These include Cartier, Chanel, Tommy Hilfiger, Etam, Gant, Baldinini, Burberry, Sonia Rykiel, St. James, Chantal Thomass, Marlboro Classics, Chaumet, Dunhill, Jaeger London, Gerard Darel and others.

The famous GUM on Red Square also belongs to the same price segment, premium. This building is historical, original, although not very spacious.

TSUM

TSUM and GUM have always competed, and their popularity has always been approximately balanced, although they differed in nuances. There is a difference even now, although both of them sell luxury goods. The Central Department Store was built more than 150 years ago and was originally intended for trade “both for rich, high-society circles, and for the middle class of the population.” Now the middle strata stand on the sidelines, and only wealthy buyers go to the Central Department Store. At their service are all the world's fashion houses, namely: Valentino, Gucci, Loro Piana, Versace, Carolina Herrera, Alexander McQueen, Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce&Gabbana, Emilio Pucci, Roberto Cavalli, Balenciaga, Givenchy, Victoria Beckham, Lanvin, Chloe, Jimmy Choo, Bottega Veneta and many others, no less famous. Price segment – ​​premium.

Here you can invite a personal stylist under the VIP shopping program; there are also other VIP services, for example, a wish-list.

To make purchases at TSUM, representatives of the middle class must wait until the sales season in order to be able to access the local goods.

Address: st. Petrovka, house No. 2. Get there by metro to the stations “Kuznetsky Most”, “Okhotny Ryad” and “Teatralnaya”.

There are still quite a few shopping centers in Moscow where it’s nice to wander around and look for familiar and favorite brands. These are, for example, “Metropolis” on the Voykovskaya metro station, “Golden Babylon” on Prospekt Mira, the VDNKh metro station, and “Evropeisky” on the Kievskaya metro station. Each of them is good in its own way, and is quite suitable for a pleasant and productive shopping experience.

Rail Europe and by bus. If necessary (for example, to organize a shopping tour), we buy package tours on.

The days of “Sex and the City” are long gone and Sarah Jessica Parker has ceased to delight with shopping madness and the notorious tulle tutu skirt. Now we treat our wardrobe much more wisely, striving to reach a golden mean in everything, in which the services of a shopping guide also help us.

In Moscow you can find and buy almost everything! It’s a question of price, as well as your awareness and effort!

Of course, all European brands are mostly more expensive here, partly due to the increased euro exchange rate (if these are chain brands, such as Zara, Massimo Dutti, etc., owned by one large concern), partly 1.5-2 times more expensive (if The brand is single, or the holding company that owns it does not pursue a policy of a single price throughout the world).
However, the choice is wide, and budget shopping in Moscow is a very real possibility.

Routes around Moscow from minimum to maximum

I won’t talk about how to walk around Moscow, which streets, and which shops are located where. This is quite sufficient in the available sources. I will describe to you several budget routes within clothing brands so that you can comprehensively and independently solve certain wardrobe problems.

My main recommendation to make your best shopping in Moscow: look at the list of brands, study in which shopping centers these brands are present, and choose the shopping center that will be most convenient for you in terms of location.

Each route includes no more than 4 stores and brands, in order to simultaneously enjoy shopping and solve all your wardrobe problems, as well as maintain inner balance while shopping.

The route is economical

So, let's start with the most economical route. The most budget brands for both clothing and accessories.

• H&M: known for its very affordable pricing policy for clothes, the maximum presence of artificial materials. Now there are quite decent and creative jewelry in the assortment, as well as shoes (made of artificial leather). Collaborations with famous brands take place from time to time (KENZO, for example, released a joint collection in November).
• ZARA: higher price level, clothes of higher quality, but also mainly made of artificial materials. A decent selection in the line of accessories and clothing. I do not recommend buying outerwear due to the fairly high price and rapid wear due to the quality of the fabric.
• MANGO: prices are at the same level as Zara, but the range is weaker. From time to time you come across interesting accessories and outerwear.
• Econika: shoes made of genuine leather at an affordable price. High-quality materials, often featuring designer models, as well as limited editions and collections created together with famous designers and media personalities.

Economy plus route

• Uniqlo: a store of natural knitwear in sporty and basic styles.
• Massimo Dutti: a wonderful selection of natural fiber clothing for both men and women. High variability in colors and styles. Calm European sophisticated style. Here I really like outerwear, as well as knitwear and silk items. Men's suits are also made to order according to measurements.
• Banana Republic: relaxed office style from smart casual to formal and weekend.
• Economy: see description above.

Middle route

• Massimo Dutti: see description above.
• Mark and Spenser: offers quality tailoring clothing for both standard sizes and for men and women of shapely shapes.
• Stockman: provides a selection of excellent accessories (hats, scarves, bags, etc.) for completely different budgets, as well as clothes in the middle and above-average price segment.
• Economy: see description above.

Middle plus route

• Max&Co: Max Mara brand line (Weekend, Marella, iBlues, PennyBlack, Marina Rinaldi, Persona).
• Stockman: see description above.
• Falconeri: very high quality knitted items, as well as outerwear based on knitwear.
• Rendez Vous: multi-brand shoe store with mid-to-upper prices. Very profitable during sales periods.

Premium route

• Max Mara: see description above.
• Falconeri: see description above.
• Lady&Gentelmen: a multi-brand store of premium clothing from famous quality brands from Italian to German.
• Rendez Vous: see description above.

Guide to fashion stores and brands

Which stores and brands can you visit depending on your possible shopping budget?
I will tell you briefly about the main shopping centers, as well as their pricing policy (a kind of shopping guide in the city of Moscow).

• TSUM and GUM are traditionally well-known, and (for a long time now) traditionally stores of luxury brands and corresponding prices.
• Shopping centers European, Atrium, Metropolis are known for the variety of affordable brands, as well as brands in the above-average segment, both in clothing and accessories.
• The Okhotny Ryad and Fashion Season shopping centers are located in the very center of Moscow and offer both traditional and chain clothing brands, as well as stores of Russian designers. Price range from low to high.

Of course, there are also single stores located along the central streets of Moscow, which also offer many variations of brands for any budget, but I will not deliberately list them due to the large number and repetition. But in general, if you walk along the street. Tverskaya, on the street. Arbat and along the street. New Arbat, I recommend that you look, at least out of curiosity, into any boutique whose display window you like, and I’m sure you will find many interesting things and determine the best places for shopping in Moscow. If you don’t like the price, turn around and leave - they don’t take money for asking :)

What your shopping experience in Moscow will be like is up to you! But to enjoy your shopping trip, you definitely need to work hard in advance.
What is important to do:

• Review all your things.
• Get rid of all things that are not in size.
• Get rid of all things you haven't worn for more than 1 year.
• Get rid of all things that have lost their appearance (covered with pills, worn out, faded or lost color, cannot be repaired, dirty, etc.).
• Look at the remaining things and ask yourself the question: what makes me feel happy (happy), confident, beautiful, satisfied?
• Leave only those things that evoke positive emotions in you.
• Put together Happy Sets from the remaining items.
• Next, you need to evaluate the result and decide in which stylistic direction you will go next.
• Based on the previous point, make a shopping list of things that you need to buy (replace your favorite ones, but those that are out of order), and also write down those things and models that will support you in the new stylistic direction that you have chosen.

And after that, you can safely go shopping without fear of buying something extra and unnecessary. Of course, a personal stylist will make the process most effective, but a shopping guide in the form of my short guide will also help in your choice! Every invested ruble will work for your style.

Among all the largest shopping centers on the planet, we can distinguish both the largest in the world and the largest in Europe; we also know about the largest shopping center in Russia. A visit to any of them becomes an event.
