Auckland is fast developing a reputation for being an excellent shopping destination, and many people from around the region travel there to make purchases.
As the centre of the New Zealand fashion industry, Auckland is a good place to head to pick up the latest trends, which tend to be a fusion of traditional Maori, Polynesian, and Far Eastern influences, and create a unique style. Big name shops selling clothing tend to be clustered around the high street, and local designers to look out for include Karen Walker and Workshop.
Other good buys in the city are Maori jewellery, and locally produced wine, as well as leather goods, and woollen products such as out door clothing and ethnic style rugs.
There is a good market in Aotea Square on a Saturday where you can pick up locally produced clothes and art, while the daily Victoria Park Market is a place to go and browse for hours and somewhere where almost everything is available.
