Looking back at ’em through rose-tinted glasses, the 2010s seemed like they were a much better time. London hosted the Olympics, Sherlock was on the telly, and everyone was wearing Joni jeans and tea dresses from Topshop.
Could things be returning to the simpler days when all you had to worry about was how tight your skinny jeans were and how to get the perfect side parting? Maybe, because Topshop is making a comeback to British high streets.
The retail icon has returned to brick and mortar stores across the UK this week – just in time for London Fashion Week – with seven locations in London.
Topshop departed from the UK’s high streets in 2021 when it closed its final stores. It was bought by ASOS in the same year, where it became available to shop online. Now the brand has returned to IRL shops for the first time since 2021, finding its new home in John Lewis department stores.
Topshop is now officially available in all of John Lewis’ 32 shops in Britain, with Topman available in seven of its stores. The launch includes a collection of 130 of Topshop’s ‘most in-demand pieces’ including their signature denim items, with products across both Topshop and Topman also available from John Lewis’ online platforms.
Michelle Wilson, managing director of Topshop, said: ‘Today is about making it easier for customers to access the Topshop and Topman pieces they love. From our cult denim to new-season footwear, you can see it, feel it, and take it home the same day.’
The launch of Topshop in London will coincide with a takeover of Piccadilly Circus for fashion week.
