To celebrate the return of MCM to the city where it was born,
the brand introduced the limited-edition Spatzl Tambourine bag, specially
designed for the occasion.
The 150sq m MCM flagship boutique is located in Brienner
Strasse, one of the most historic boulevards in Munich. The architectural and interior concepts recreate a gazebo and
are inspired by European gardens, featuring key elements including fences, ivory,
wooden and golden details. The store also contains an MCM zoo, stemming from
MCM’s love for flora and fauna, as seen in the brand’s growing range of animal figures.

The product selection focuses on the traditional Heritage
line in various styles as well as latest designs, such as the Diamond Visetos,
mini bags, clutches and the Munich Lion and Camo Lion range for men.
