SUNRISE, FL — Sawgrass Mills, the largest outlet and value retail shopping destination in the United States, will add Versace, Roberto Cavalli and Frette over the next several months to its already impressive collection of world-renowned name brand offerings. The addition of these fine stores, as part of the ongoing expansion of The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass Mills, signifies an unprecedented luxury outlet collection available only at Sawgrass Mills in South Florida.

"As one of the top retail destinations in the U.S., Sawgrass Mills continues to attract more high fashion brands looking to expand their market presence and appeal to millions of South Florida shoppers and visitors," said Luanne Lenberg, VP/ General Manager at Sawgrass Mills. "We continue to deliver a shopping experience unlike any other with more than 350 stores, including many of which are exclusive to Sawgrass Mills in this market."

Versace, founded in 1978, is one of the most recognized names in fashion as the famous designer to icons such as Madonna, Elton John, Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga and many others. This Italian fashion house offers an assortment of high-end, often handmade, apparel, accessories, handbags and shoes for style conscious men and women. When it opens at The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass Mills this summer, this will be the only outlet location from Versace in the state.

Admired across the globe for bold designs utilizing color, exotic embellishments, animal prints and sexy cutouts, Roberto Cavalli will open its first outlet location in the United States this summer. The much sought after Italian brand will offer trend-setting clothing and accessories, as well as home décor and fragrances at unbeatable prices.

For more than a century, Frette, a leading designer of fine linens, has been delivering style and comfort to its loyal hotel and individual customers. Also scheduled to open this summer, this first-in-state outlet location will offer its one-of-a-kind collection of fine bedding, decorative pillows, luxurious throws and quilts, as well as plush terry bath sheets and towels.

These three noteworthy additions build upon the momentum of the previously announced market-exclusive outlet concepts opening at The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass Mills. Recently opened stores include Diane von Furstenberg, Robert Graham and an expanded location from Giorgio Armani General Store. The 40,000 square foot expansion will also include relocations from Gucci, Prada and Zegna, plus South Florida's only outlets from Wolford and Ippolita will open soon.

The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass Mills is already home to a wealth of the best names in fashion such as Burberry, Hugo Boss, Coach, Michael Kors, Tory Burch, Valentino, David Yurman, St. John and more.

Zinburger Wine & Burger Bar will open its first and only location in Florida later this year as another great dining option offering casual fare. Shoppers at The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass Mills already enjoy delicious food at Grand Lux Cafe, Villagio, Paul's Bakery and P.F. Chang's China Bistro.
