Pacsun announced on Thursday it plans to opens its first Dubai store in early 2026, after the U.S. retailer open nine domestic stores in 2025 with 20-35 slated to open across the U.S. next year.

The debut flagship Dubai store will be Pacsun’s first international location in its 40-year history, and comes after the retailer revealed it had inked a new regional partnership in the Middle East with Majid Al Futtaim, earlier this month.

Under the agreement, Pacsun said it plans to open up to 20 stores across the Middle East over the next five years, including another flagship location in Abu Dhabi. 

The Dubai location comes on the back of two recent store openings across the U.S. — in New York City and Westchester — as the Los Angeles-based retailer looks to capitalise on double-digit growth in in-store traffic.

Looking ahead, the brand plans to add 20–35 new stores over the next three years, with nine leases already signed for 2026 — making next year the biggest domestic retail expansion for the company in nearly two decades.

“Our stores have become cultural touch points for a generation that values experience as much as product. What begins on our social channels—inspiration and community—ultimately drives young people to see it in person. Doubling down on brick-and-mortar simply reflects what our community is already telling us,” said Brieane Olson, chief executive officer, Pacsun.

Earlier this month, PacSun launched a curated resale shop, introducing PS Vintage Powered by Springy, a dedicated collection of thousands of one-of-a-kind vintage pieces for men and women.

December 19, 2025

Montpellier-based group Socri Limited has announced a change of identity to become Ceiba, a name registered in around thirty countries to support the group’s international ambitions.

Ceiba

The group notably operates the Polygone shopping centres in Béziers and Montpellier, the Galeries Lafayette department stores in Avignon and Béziers, and the La Coupole shopping centre in Nîmes.

“Ceiba is a logical step,” explained its chairman, Nicolas Chambon. “We are not changing what we do; we are embracing what we have become. This new name allows us to assert an identity that is clear, committed, and true to our values.”

The name Ceiba, taken from the sacred Latin American tree, had already been used by the group’s U.S. subsidiary. Its adoption at group level “forms part of a deliberate international trajectory,” according to the company, which was founded in 2023.

The group’s Nîmes shopping centre recently welcomed the opening of a Galeries Lafayette store, inaugurated on October 2. The opening is reported to have delivered a 45% increase in footfall at the 13,500-square-metre shopping centre at the start of autumn.

Under the deal, founder of Ippolita, Ippolita Rostagno, will continue in her role as chief creative officer, overseeing all aspects of design across the brand’s jewelry collections.

I am delighted to continue guiding the brand’s creative vision as we reach an even broader global audience.”

Launching in 1999 exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman, Ippolita is known for its sculptural jewelery that blends contemporary design with Italian craftsmanship. Today, the brand is sold through leading luxury retailers and boutiques worldwide.

“We are thrilled to welcome Ippolita into the MadaLuxe Group family,” said Adam Freede, CEO and co-founder of MadaLuxe Group, which added it will support the New York fine jewelry brand’s continued growth across key markets worldwide.

“Ippolita is an iconic brand with a rich artistic heritage, extraordinary customer loyalty, and a timeless visual vocabulary. We see significant opportunity to drive brand growth through strategic support and investment. Above all, we saw a great chance to add someone as talented as Ippolita to the MadaLuxe family, who views the importance of people and company culture the same way that we do.”
