Launched in 1991 in the U.S., A|X Armani Exchange caters to a
new generation of fashion consumers by offering individual style through an
accessible collection for men and women. A part of the Armani Group, A|X
Armani Exchange is the voice of urban youth, a fashion conscience, an
incubator for Giorgio Armani's new ideas and the street barometer of his
fashion directions. A|X Armani Exchange is a translation of Mr. Armani's
pure sense of design into an innovative, interchangeable mix of edgy
separates for men and women. Inspired by city living, the A|X generation
constantly seeks the latest in nightlife, music and DJ dance culture.
Al Tayer Group, the sole franchisee for the brand in the UAE,
opened the first A|X store in Abu Dhabi’s Marina Mall in October 2006. The popularity of
this urban/street lifestyle brand led to the opening of the second store in
the city in Al Wahda Mall in May 2007, followed by Deira City Center of Dubai in October 2007.
