People come to Vegas for so many reasons other than gambling. And shopping is one of these reasons! With all of the high-end casino action and special events such as Formula 1, the Super Bowl, and major concerts, there is huge demand for luxury goods in particular.
This article is all you’ll need when determining where to shop for luxury items: clothing, jewelry, handbags, or other accessories. For example, you’ll discover where all six Louis Vuitton stores in Vegas are located and which of those locations is the largest!
What to Know about Luxury Shopping in Vegas
Bring us the jewels! Here are the best places for luxury shopping in Vegas.
Crystals
Hours: Sunday – Thursday 11 am to 9 pm, Friday – Saturday 10 am to 10 pm (hours for individual stores may vary)
Crystals is located on the Strip in front of Aria and connected by an overstreet pedestrian bridge from Cosmopolitan. Although the architecture and ambiance may remind you of a fancy Middle Eastern airport, Crystals is considered the largest ‘all-luxury’ shopping center in the US. In other words, you won’t find sporting goods stores or a Sbarro here.
The Simon-owned property includes the Las Vegas flagship stores of Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Tiffany. In fact, the multi-story Louis Vuitton store here is the largest in the United States.
Other well-known luxury brands in this shopping center include:
- Armani
- Cartier
- Chanel
- Dior
- Fendi
- Harry Winston
- Hermes
- Prada
- Saint Laurent
- Valentino
- Versace
In terms of dining, Jose Andres’ Bazaar Mar recently opened. The high-energy Mexican restaurant, Toca Madera, has quickly become a Strip favorite. Mastro’s Ocean Club has also been a fixture at Crystals for years.
Crystals has dedicated valet parking available, and several stores offer curbside pickup.

Wynn & Encore
Hours: Sunday & Thursday 10 am to 9 pm, Monday – Wednesday 11 am to 9 pm, Friday – Saturday 10 am to 10 pm (hours for individual stores may vary)
The Wynn and Encore have three different shopping areas. One area is at the street entrance to the Wynn from the Strip (Shops at Wynn). The second largest area is the shops at the Wynn near the Wynn parking garage (Wynn Plaza Shops). The third area is the indoor walkway between Wynn and Encore (Shops at Encore).
The Wynn & Encore have a good mix of the ‘main line’ luxury stores, but it probably has the best variety of unique-to-the-market high-end brands. The stores here are not the biggest on the Strip, but like pretty much everything else at Wynn & Encore, the shopping experience ‘feels’ elevated and luxurious.
Luxury brands found here include:
- Louis Vuitton
- Chanel
- Dior
- Fendi
- Gucci
- Hermes
- Prada
- Rolex
- Tiffany
Some other luxury stores here include:

Via Bellagio Shops
Hours: Sunday – Thursday 10 am to 9 pm, Friday – Saturday 10 am to 10 pm (hours for individual stores may vary)
Located in The Bellagio on the Caesars Palace side, The Via Bellagio shops are the OG of luxury retail in Vegas. When Bellagio opened in 1998, there was little luxury in Vegas.
In order to coax fine retailers to come to the market, Steve Wynn told the retailers they could just pay him a percentage of sales with no minimum fixed rent. This move proved to be a win-win for all parties–including shoppers!
The 15-or-so stores include:
- Louis Vuitton
- Dior, Chanel
- Cartier
- Prada
- Gucci
- Fendi
- Hermes (located on its own in the hotel lobby)

The only luxury stores in the mall are Louis Vuitton and Tiffany. However, you will find a good selection of luxury brands in both the Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus anchor stores.
