Fashionistas, this is for you. The American, off-price, megamall concept has come to Europe ! If an important part of your Italian vacation is to bring back some of the latest fashions, or if you're looking for a good rainy day activity, this mall must be on your must-do list. With 160 shops, seven restaurants, and its own casino, Foxtown combines the best of American ideas — discounts! — with the best European style. You won’t see these shops in your local mall back home. Here, you’ll find clothing, shoes, and jewelry from all of those fabulous and exclusive Italian and European designers, sold at discounts of 30% to 70%. You’ll travel home wearing something that everyone will drool over. But don’t worry, you can find gifts for them here too; truly one-stop shopping. And if you’re feeling lucky, go drop a euro or two into the slot machines at the casino while you’re here. I bet you can’t do that in your mall back home.
Foxtown is open everyday from 11.00 – 19.00. Closed on 1 January. Easter, 1 August, Christmas, and Saint Stephen’s.
Foxtown is one hour from Stresa by car, in Mendrisio, Switzerland
