Mavi Jeans Opens Stunning New Space in Kitsilano

Kitsilano is one of the city’s prime shopping districts, and Mavi Jeans has long been a neighbourhood staple at the intersection of 4th and Arbutus. News recently broke that they were packing up their well-known shop, though customers breathed a sigh of relief when their new location, just three doors down the street (2128 West Fourth Avenue), was announced. Their new home is bigger, better and brighter, and on Thursday night it was also alive with action as Mavi hosted their grand opening #KitsParty. 

Arkun Durmas, Mavi Canada’s President, was on hand to welcome the crowd as friends, family, media and Mavi’s top customers filled the 1,600-square foot space. Bottles of champagne and Peroni were chilled on ice atop a bar supported by stacks of jeans. Across the room, a very different kind of bar drew a crowd, decked out by Frankie’s Candy. Guests loaded up bags from the buffet of sweets, all in Mavi’s signature blue colour.

Though the label hails from Turkey, its casual and approachable look has a distinctly all-American feel. Denim is their staple, and a vast array of jeans in every imaginable style, rise and rinse is available in men’s, women’s and children’s collections. Shoppers stocked up on fall/winter styles, taking advantage of the one-night discounts and free gifts.

Mavi’s new store is located at 2128 West Fourth Avenue in Vancouver. Visit the Mavi Canada website for more information.
