About us

“To be in the trend” – what do these words mean today? Modern fashion is not just a trend and the silhouettes of the season, it is a whole world that includes not only the ability to look exactly like the photos in a fashion magazine, but also to create an individual image, characterized by a unique look for your own appearance, highlighting the rich inner world.

 

All you need to become a true fashionista is located in the heart of the capital and is called Podium Italia. This name is well known in Tashkent. Our boutiques have provided the most significant collections of the world famous couturiers to the most demanding customers over the years.

The Interior Podium Italia boutique on the Khamid Alimdjan square is designed according to the best European traditions: frosted glass of noble color, a two-floor hall, weightless stairs of a transparent material, a cozy bar, as if it is floating in the air: everything creates a sense of lightness, luxury and the amazing atmosphere of a real fashion place.

The boutique in the trading mall, Arcada, is designed according the conceptuality of all Podium Italia projects.

Sophisticated but laconic decor is reflected in the noble shade of a tree – dark and saturated shelves, sandy floor tones, and matching tones in the curtains and furniture.
