Zara opens 1st homewares store in Australia, plans more

First it was fashion and now it’s homewares for the fashion conscious with the opening of Zara Home at the Highpoint shopping centre in Melbourne.

It’s the first homewares store by the Spanish group Inditex – the owner of the Zara label – in Australia but more are planned. There are suggestions the Macquarie Centre in Sydney will be considered for its first NSW site.

Zara, which is the biggest fast-fashion retailer in the world, has offered homewares in other countries, as does its rival and second-biggest global retailer, Swedish H&M.
