It cannot be said that shopping in Austria is benchmark. This is due to the fact that the working hours of most stores are not too friendly for shoppers. On weekdays trade workers work until 19.00, and on weekends their working day is reduced to 17 - 18 hours. Therefore, you will not be able to make an evening promenade through the local boutiques.
When going on a shopping tour in Austria, you should know that the country has many of its own brands that can make the shopping experience more unique. Of course, in the major cities you can also find popular global brands and mass stores such as ZARA, H&M, C&A, Benetton and Salamander.
Almost everywhere in the country you can find stores of Austrian lingerie and sleepwear under the name Palmers. In Huber stores you can find both products of the Austrian brand of the same name and another one - Skiny. During the sale season in Austria, a set of women's clothes can be bought for 30-40 EUR on average, and in normal time it will cost about 2 times more.
Jewelry made of Swarovski crystals is considered to be the true calling card of Austria. The policy of this brand is uniform, and the prices in the online store on the company's website correspond to retail prices. The cost of earrings - from 49 EUR per pair, a set with a pendant - from 99 EUR. Sales in Austria and big "Sale" signs are just a bait, as several stands with reduced prices contain nothing fashionable and attractive.
If you want to experience the ultimate Austrian shopping experience, make sure to visit one of Wolford's lingerie outlet stores. Here, you can purchase women's clothing and accessories at prices that are 70% off the original price. Vienna, in particular, offers a shopping paradise where you'll want to dedicate ample time. The city's main and finest stores and boutiques are conveniently located along its primary street.
