Enjoy affordable sips while you shop.
Comfortwear and coffee are the unofficial uniform of Gen Z in the UAE. Between daily caffeine runs and oversized outfits, the homegrown label, The Giving Movement, has brought both worlds under one roof with the launch of its first café inside the brand’s flagship at City Walk.
Tucked within the store, The Giving Movement Café is designed for easy pauses between try-ons and checkouts. Order a speciality brew, browse rails of sustainable athleisure, then settle into the pared-back seating and a minimalist palette for a moment of calm. In keeping with the brand’s accessible ethos, the headline here is value: a perfectly poured flat white is priced at just AED 15.
Founded by Dominic Nowell-Barnes, The Giving Movement was born in 2020 as a UAE-based e-commerce label with a purpose. After relocating to Dubai in 2017, Nowell-Barnes set out to prove that fashion could be a vehicle for positive change. Today, the brand blends performance fabrics with a sustainability mindset, spotlighting conscious consumerism without sacrificing style.
The Giving Movement is famous for its sustainable athleisure wear, which covers everything from sweatpants to sweatshirts. The company puts its intentions on its sleeves, as many of the garments are emblazoned with the brand’s name in a bold, stylish print. Plus, there is a trendy selection of modest wear. True to its name, the giving is built in. With every item sold, AED 15 is donated to Dubai Cares and Harmony House, supporting education initiatives and children in need.
Whether you are hunting for your next hoodie or simply chasing a caffeine reset, The Giving Movement Café in City Walk allows you to shop, sip, and slow the pace for a few minutes.
