topshop soho





here are first pix from Topshop Soho which is going to be opened on April 2nd by Kate Moss!
and some info: The Soho store mirrors the Oxford Circus flagship store in London, “the four-level, 40,000-square-foot space, with 28,000 square feet for selling, is an eyeful of energetic, packed merchandising with about 2,000 stockkeeping units, a broad price range from moderate to bridge, and dozens of mannequins and forms, either dangling from the high, 30-foot ceilings or sitting atop the alcoves. It’s a wide store with columns and escalators, huge colorful illustrations of London icons, and theatrically lit Topshop marquees.”

The twin sisters Tineke and Marieke Willems, who form the Dutch design studio Tweelink, have designed the Bux chesterfield pouf for the new outdoor furniture company Dutch Summer..From Tweelink:
The BUX is an inimitable Chesterfield pouf inspired by the box tree. It looks like a BUX and it feels like sitting on a throne. The top is made from skai leather and the bucket is made from plastic.
