Today, DIZZ Group’s portfolio includes Guess, Liu Jo, Nespresso, Kiko Milano, Boggi Milano, Paul & Shark, Harmont & Blaine, Terranova, Calliope, Caffe Pascucci, Ladurée, Rossopomodoro and Paul among others. The Group’s growth and success are driven by innovation, quality, and a deep understanding of evolving customer preferences.

‘The launch of Stefanel at Bay Street is a proud moment for us,’ said Mrs Diane Izzo, Chief Executive Officer of DIZZ Group. ‘Stefanel’s refined simplicity and timeless design perfectly reflect our philosophy of offering Maltese customers the very best in international fashion. This launch also reinforces our commitment to expanding our brand portfolio and further elevating Malta’s fashion landscape.’

Founded in 1959 in Ponte di Piave, Italy, Stefanel has become synonymous with Italian elegance and creativity. The brand is renowned for its signature knitwear, contemporary silhouettes, and understated designs crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Stefanel’s collections are designed for women who value versatility, comfort, and sophistication, embodying confidence through simplicity.

At the new Stefanel Bay Street boutique, shoppers can explore a curated collection of ready-to-wear pieces, from refined knitwear and tailored trousers to elegant outerwear. The brand’s neutral palette, premium materials, and timeless cuts make each piece a lasting wardrobe essential.

The arrival of Stefanel enhances Malta’s growing reputation as a destination for international fashion. Located in the heart of St Julian’s, Bay Street Shopping Complex attracts both local and international shoppers, making it the ideal setting for Stefanel’s Maltese debut under DIZZ Group’s management.

‘Malta’s fashion scene continues to evolve, and we’re proud to be part of that progress,’ added Denise Bonello. ‘Stefanel represents timeless Italian elegance – something that resonates deeply with our customers. We are confident the brand will be warmly embraced by fashion lovers across the island.’
