For an outdoor experience, follow Post Oak Boulevard north to Uptown Park, where well-heeled boutiques fill the Italian-inspired shopping villa.

For those traveling, access to the most distinct high-end shopping in Houston is only 16 miles from William P. Hobby Airport and 27 miles from George Bush Intercontinental Airport, both offering direct flights to domestic and international destinations around the world.

Originally a furrier and leather-goods company, Fendi is globally known for unabashed extravagance.

He launched the house’s ready-to-wear lines in 1977, creating glamorous womenswear and classically tailored menswear. Still perhaps best known for its logo-laden accessories, Fendi consistently produces some of the world’s most coveted “it-bags.”
