New Designer Stores in Naples This Season
The shopping map has changed since this post first ran. These are the openings and moves reported for the 2025-26 season and into 2026.
Waterside Shops
Dior moved out of its shop-in-shop at Saks into its own 6,000-square-foot boutique on June 11, 2026. Restoration Hardware is building a campus of about 30,000 square feet on the former Nordstrom site, with an opening hoped for near the end of 2026. Love Shack Fancy, Vuori, Piranesi and Peter Millar were slated for fall, and Van Cleef & Arpels is set to take Omega's current space once Omega relocates.
Fifth Avenue South
Porsche Studio Naples, one of five such concept spaces worldwide, lets you configure a car over espresso. French label Anne Fontaine opened in summer 2025, Hayes Haberdashery added a second location for tailored Italian menswear, and The Augusta Clothing Company was announced for early 2026.
Third Street South
Marissa Collections added a shop-in-a-shop for American jeweler David Webb. Daniella Ortiz brought her handcrafted leather bags from Palm Beach, the century-old linens shop Gattle's redesigned its space, and Books on Third opened nearby.
Opening dates move. Several of these were announced as targets, not confirmed dates. Check the Naples Press report on Waterside's 2026 tenants and Gulfshore Life's 2025-26 season preview, then call the store before a special trip.
A One-Day Designer Route Through Naples
Naples spreads its luxury retail along U.S. 41 and the downtown grid, so the order you visit matters more than in a single-mall city. This route moves north to south and ends where the evening valet starts.
Morning at Waterside Shops
Start with the international labels. Book personal shopping appointments ahead for houses that offer them.
Late morning in the Naples Design District
Head south on 41 to 10th Street for fine jewelry, home design showrooms and designer consignment.
Lunch and the afternoon on Fifth Avenue South
Leave the car in one of the 8th Street South garages or the public lot on Park Street at 6th Avenue South. The Naples Trolley runs daily from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. with hop-on, hop-off stops downtown.
Late afternoon on Third Street South
Finish near the beach. The Third Street South concierge has offered package holding and help with transportation, so ask before you carry bags to dinner.
Dinner back on Fifth
Valet stations along Fifth Avenue South open at 5 p.m., at $10 per car according to the district's parking and transit page. For where to eat, see our guide to fine dining in Naples.
Timing matters in Naples. Several Fifth Avenue valet stations only operate from November 1 to May 31, Art Alive runs November to early May, and the Saturday farmers market changes location with the season, as we explain in why the Third Street South market isn't where you left it. Season affects the housing market the same way: see buying in season vs. off-season.
The Naples Design District: Jewelry, Interiors and Consignment
The post above covers Fifth, Third and the malls, but another cluster of high-end boutiques sits a few blocks inland. The Naples Design District runs along 10th Street between Fifth Avenue North and Second Avenue South, within walking distance of Fifth Avenue South.
Its anchor is The Collective at 111 10th Street South, a building of design showrooms, art studios and home furnishings retailers. Jeweler Vivian Grimes opened Henri Noël's first standalone showroom here for the 2025-26 season, a 3,000-square-foot space with a private client lounge and an onsite jeweler for custom work and heirloom redesigns. For pre-owned designer pieces, Audrey's of Naples in the district carries gently worn Hermès, Louis Vuitton and Chanel, a good pairing with Designer Divas mentioned above.
