Golden Triangle
A real luxury hub in Casablanca, The Golden Triangle stands out as THE ultimate chic neighborhood. A hint of Parisian air blows over this small luxury paradise. Here, there is a real fashion pilgrimage every day, as fashionistas go there for their shopping. Initially, the famous Golden Triangle was not really in this neighborhood: more towards the east, it included a part of Casablanca between Anfa, Zerktouni and Massira El Khadra Boulevards. It is a triangle in which real estate prices were among the highest in the city.
The name moved towards this much sought after neighberhood, born from the fad for luxury and beautiful things, and of course corresponding to the real estate prices which soared here in recent years, undoubtedly due to the prestigious stores in its streets. Indeed, the great haute couture houses decided to gather here. From one street to the next, Missoni, Yves Saint Laurent, Yves Salomon, Furla and many other stores, all very prestigious, follow one another. Wandering in the streets of the Golden Triangle also constitutes a wonderful opportunity to admire great jewelry: Ain Harrouda Street brings together the best jewelry houses: Bulgari, Chopard, Tamengo, Kalista…
The neighborhood is also home to brand new concept stores that are experiencing a real surge in popularity. A fad phenomenon, they offer a wide panel of items, from beauty products to decorative objects, fashion, and sometimes even food services such as the TO concept store and L’Echoppe, ideal shops for those who like the all-in-one concept. Aside from the luxury brands, the Golden Triangle also offers a selection of quality, international franchises such as Maje, The Kooples, Belair, Sud Express, Lee Cooper… The little ones have not been left out, as several shops are dedicated to them, and we can be tempted by a small coat at Okaidi or a timeless layette at Jacadi, that in turn has just opened at the
heart of this neighborhood.
At the Golden Triangle, you can find things to please the most demanding people!
Casablanca Designers
The fresh, shrewd look of Casablanca designers gives rise to modern, refined collections, where the designs and materials break free
from the traditional codes. This new fashion appeals to young, trendy customers. Casablanca designers now display their work in concept stores, shops, corners and showrooms all over the city. Caftans, gandoras, jellabas, jabadors, and serouals are reinterpreted, and in parallel, the ready to wear collections break free from these Moroccan lines. The handmade cloaks by Ghita Lahrichi, the babouches of Zyne, and the leather jackets by AD Fashion are worn in everyday life.
Moroccan haute couture is also doing wonderfully, its designers reinvent traditional fashion with designs that beautifully combine modernity and tradition. A masterpiece in the wardrobe of elegant Casablanca women, caftans represent the emblematic figure and know-how of the Kingdom’s best craftsmen. Synonymous with elegance and refinement, they require hours of work and all the pieces that compose them are handmade.
It is this well alive and contemporary crafts heritage that gave the city of Casablanca its excellent designers. Today more than ever, designers offer real combinations: Albert Oiknine for an authentic caftan, Said Mahrouf for refined lines, and Lina Cahill with her contemporary
touch. They all export their work and have conquered the catwalks from Paris to New York, from London to Amsterdam. Haute couture, ready to wear, jewelry, leather goods, and shoes artists: there are artists in all fields to the greatest delight of informed fashion addicts!

This is the ideal place to stock up on babouches, gandoras, tunics, belts, bags… The colors are bright, the smell of leather is everywhere. Moulay Youssef square and the eponymous mosque are down the street. From there, new horizons begin. In this medina which is a real labyrinth, and its different souks of spices, olives, and its kissarias, visitors forget the craze of the city.
