definately frankfurt ! they do have two !!boutiques one at the airport and one at the posh goethestrasse. if you are a natural colour girl you might find something (neutrals seem to be german preferred colours )
ok then dubai. forget it. dubai is fab i love it to death and pieces and you have to visit for a few days (one is not enough) but as a tourist and unknown to hermès here and without the right last name the right jewelery and a known face forget it to even see a bag here.
(even i who lives there since more than a decade does not shop there as locals get serverd first and the bags never reach the shop the go directly to the homes of the royals and highly important locals . only refusals may hit the store but i do not buy these for personal cultural reasons i dont want something that was not good enough for the shaikha :shame:
but the things that show up and are not taken are ugly anyways
)
ah and about germany another plus the 16% vat and it is amongst the cheapest places in europe to shop for designer goods in general
