Adam Stone, head of retail asset management UK at Nuveen, said: “Multrees Walk has become home to many leading and exclusive fashion brands, and we are proud to announce the next chapter for Louis Vuitton.

"As one of our first retailers to open, to see Louis Vuitton trade so successfully to the point where they decided to upsize their store and expand their product offering in Edinburgh is fantastic and testament to the strong trading environment offered by Multrees Walk.

"We look forward to continuing to evolve the retail offering by welcoming further high-end luxury retailers in the near future.”

Louis Vuitton said an “exclusive shopping enclave also awaits clients, offering a dedicated space for individual appointments, where clients can immerse themselves within a bespoke shopping experience, tailored to their every desire and need”.

Clients are provided with an “entirely unique private shopping experience surrounded by works of art, historical Louis Vuitton archival objects and unparalleled artisanal savoir-faire”.
