Brand opens first store outside the South East
British brand Temperley London has opened its first standalone store outside the South East in Hammerson’s Victoria Leeds. The retail space will stock the Temperley London Autumn and Winter 2019 collections, along with a select offering of their Bridal collection.
The brand focuses on women’s ready-to-wear collections, and offers a comprehensive range of daywear, cocktail and eveningwear.
Iain Mitchell, UK commercial director at Hammerson, said: “Temperley London’s unique design-led products will be a great addition to Victoria Leeds, and will really complement the broader fashion offer at the destination, which includes the likes of Louis Vuitton and Vivienne Westwood. Pop-up stores are a great way for brands to test out their offer in new locations, and also help us to keep our destinations fresh and exciting for consumers.”
Luca Donnini, CEO of Temperley London, said of the opening: “Temperley London is aiming to expand its own retail operation in key UK locations outside London; we have chosen Victoria Gate as a first step. This is part of a strategy which aims to give access to a wider audience in our national market. Leeds will be an important space to showcase our new product categories launching in 2020, together with the magic Bridal Collection. ”
