The Fashion Mall is awesome it is a huge mall with all the big name stores, it is very pretty and has great restaurants. There is also the Forum Shops at Caesar’s which is also very nice but quite pricey. I would not suggest the outlet mall. It is off strip and very tacky and I don’t see any difference in prices. I hope you have fun while you are here. Good Luck
Fashion Show Mall is the most convenient because it’s right there on the strip but a lot of the hotels on the strip has some sort of shopping promenade. I personally prefer the Town Square. Here is a list of all the major shopping malls and outlet centers.

The fashion show mall is my favorite.
I also like shopping at Planet Hollywood too.
The Fashion Show Mall is on the strip near Treasure Island, and it’s basically just a normal, but big, mall. There are high-end shops in the Forum Shops at Caesars and the Grand Canal Shops at Venetian, and the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood have a mix of high-end and more traditional stores. All are great places to browse and shop.
Some of the hotel shopping on Las Vegas Boulevard is an absolute must, as much for the surroundings as for the boutiques themselves. A great place to start on the strip is the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace (3500 Las Vegas Blvd S.) Even if you don’t spend a dime you will enjoy the architectural details of this famous shopping venue. Designed to reflect the grandness of a Roman street, this shopping arcade features marble statues, a massive atrium with a domed skylight, and the much-copied sky painted ceilings that make it feel like you’re outside even though you aren’t. The shopping is also pretty remarkable. There are over 160 stores including mall favourites such as Gap, Victoria’s Secret and Abercrombie & Fitch, alongside top international luxury brands like Gianni Versace, Louis Vuitton and Roberto Cavalli. Notable boutiques include the chic fashions in Nanette Lepore, the incredible bags by Balenciaga, and the trendy pieces in Intermix. You will find fashions for your home as well, from the handcrafted crystal at Baccarat to the sleek designs at Nambé. If you hit the jackpot, the Forum Shops are the place to splurge – and so is the extraordinary collection of boutiques at the Wynn Esplanade in the Wynn Las Vegas (3131 Las Vegas Blvd S.) Oscar de la Renta features classic couture and shoe lovers particularly will enjoy the sexy styles on display at Manolo Blahnik. If you REALLY hit the jackpot you could even treat yourself to a shiny new car at the Penske Wynn Ferrari Maserati dealership.
For more great shopping and opulent settings, head to the Grand Canal Shoppes at the Venetian Resort & Casino (3355 Las Vegas Blvd S.) It has a canal complete with crooning gondoliers, cobblestone walkways and a re-creation of Venice’s famous St. Mark’s Square. Shoppers are serenaded by musicians, jugglers and various entertainers as they stroll along the canal. There are plenty of luxe labels to browse including Burberry, Jimmy Choo and the stylish and sexy designs at bebe. If you want to pamper your skin, the luxurious soaps, lotions and fragrances at Acca Kappa are simply divine. Other highlights include the one-of-a-kind porcelain designs in the Lladro boutique, and the acclaimed panoramic photography in the Peter Lik Gallery. Other notable shopping on the strip can be found at the bustling Miracle Mile Shops at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino (3663 Las Vegas Blvd S.) which offers hip stores like H&M, Marciano and Ben Sherman.
There are some gigantic malls in Vegas and shopaholics should prepare themselves for a shopping extravaganza at Fashion Show (3200 Las Vegas Blvd S.) At nearly 2-million-square-feet with more than 200 stores, this shopping centre is one of the biggest in the US. Located in the heart of the strip, this mall features an 80-foot retractable runway for the fashion shows that run regularly. You’ll find renowned department stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Macy’s, and Bloomingdales, and cutting edge shops like Zara, Betsey Johnson and Ed Hardy. And there are plenty of popular chains like Hollister, J. Crew, and Ann Taylor. More in the mood for Old Navy than Emporio Armani? Then check out The Boulevard (3528 South Maryland Parkway.) Just minutes from the strip and downtown, it is the second largest mall in the city after Fashion Show, and features a Sears, JC Penney, and many other mall favourites.
Off the strip, head downtown to the Las Vegas Premium Outlets (875 South Grand Central Parkway.) This open-air shopping venue has over 150 stores with a mix of brands, many of which are unexpected for an outlet. The uber-trendy on a budget will love browsing through the fashions at Dolce & Gabbana, Michael Kors and A|X Armani Exchange. Need to accessorize? Head to Kate Spade, Coach or Cole Haan. From sportswear at Adidas to crystal at Swarovski, this is outlet shopping that really delivers the designer goods. There are also lots of upscale finds at the Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas (32100 Las Vegas Blvd S.) located about 40 miles south in Primm, Nevada. Shuttles are available from the MGM Grand Hotel, the Miracle Mile and Fashion Show (round-trip fare is $15.00 and includes a coupon book.) Highlights include Neiman Marcus Last Call and the Williams Sonoma Marketplace, which is worth the trip itself for deep discounts on high-end kitchenware.
Every top high-end store has a location in Las Vegas, with some being the store’s second only in the world, such as Barney’s from New York and Manola Blahnik shoes (or however you spell that).
Fashion Show is your typical mall, but very nice inside. It’s named for the regular fashion shows held on a catwalk that rises out of the floor. But it’s really just a mall. You’ll want to check out the resorts, just about each of which has its own collection of stores.
Barney’s is at The Palazzo. There is a second floor mall area there, and while I don’t recognize the stores, the women here rave about it. Attached to The Palazzo is The Venetian, where you can shop in a replica of Venice, complete with St. Mark’s Square and the canals with gondolas.
Wynn and Encore have an array of high-end boutiques, including Coach, Malno Blahnik and others.
Finally, The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace has a range of stores, from Gucci to Gap, with most of the mall done to mimic a stroll through an ancient Roman village, including a sky that changes from dawn to midday to dusk and two sets of talking statues.
There is also the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood but it’s not really worth a special trip there on its own.
Whats your budget?
Fashion Show Mall. Tons of stores. On the strip.
Wynn Mall. For the SuperRich! On the strip. Across from FSM.
Mall on Maryland Prkwy. 1mile from the strip. Take Spring Mtn Road/East. Basic USA town mall. Sears. JcPenney and whatever!
Downtown outside Mall. Least I like. Bathrooms far and inbetween.
Maze like! I get headaches here. Supposedly a lot of discount/discontinued items shops from Name brands.

You don’t say what you are shopping for. The thing in Vegas is where there isn’t any shopping. Everywhere you go you will find stores of all kinds. Most resorts have huge shopping areas along the strip. Most of the small independent souvenier stores are now gone but there are still a few. If shopping is your thing then this is the place to be.
Towne Square and the outlet mall right across the street.
All the casinos have excellent places to shop . Most notably Bellagio , Caesars Palace and just north of those casinos is the Fashion Show Mall and right across the street is a place called Sephora its a perfume & cologne shop . When you go these places make sure you plenty of money or credit . The opposite the end of the strip is the Las Vegas Outlet Center . Sephora is a decent place to shop reasonably priced the average price for perfume or cologne is about $50 to a $125 a bottle . You will need transportation to get around the Las Vegas Strip is surprisingly long about 10 miles long . All the casinos have excellent restaurants to eat in. What I usually do is I make notes about certain places then go back them the next day . Then I go shopping . Plus there is the miracle mile shopping plaza located in the middle of the strip . There is 2 web sites you can check out http://www.whats-on.com & http://www.todayinlv.com those web sites are dedicated to Las Vegas . Remember some things you might purchase are not allowed on the airport flight your best bet is to mail some items back home . So be-careful
leave the strip area. they are all over priced. even the outlet malls are not cheap.
Agree with Paul. Try the Meadows Mall or the Boulevard Mall. Dillard’s, Macy’s, Penny’s, VS, Fredericks, etc at much cheaper prices.
