\n Represent\u2019s much-anticipated London flagship complete with in-store cafe has finally opened at 135-141 Wardour Street, an increasingly popular shopping thoroughfare off Oxford Street<\/a> and in the Soho neighbourhood.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It\u2019s only the third standalone store for the brand, following its physical debut in Los Angeles in March last year and its second opening in Manchester last October.<\/p>\n

The new store covers 5,000 square feet across two floors with the company saying it will \u201cprovide customers with a luxury bespoke shopping experience, showcasing the brand\u2019s most coveted collections\u201d. These include Represent Mainline, plus its performance line 247 by Represent, as well as Represent Woman<\/a>, and its band collaborations with Oasis<\/a>, Guns N\u2019 Roses, and Iron Maiden.<\/p>\n

A large part of the store has been dedicated to the 247 offer with the performance line \u201cexperiencing significant growth in the last few years\u201d. In fact, with it expanded this year to include 247 Woman, it’s \u201cnow the fastest-growing arm of the Represent business\u201d. Its sales have rise by 75% since January alone and it now accounts for 25% of the overall Represent business, we\u2019re told.<\/p>\n

Represent is also launching an exclusive collection available in-store only, featuring limited-edition London Store T-shirts and hoodies available in Jet<\/a> Black and Flat White, and a London Store football shirt in Mid Brown. Alongside this, the brand will also launch a capsule of Owners Club Cafe merchandise, featuring hoodies, tees, caps, and homeware, available exclusively at the cafe.<\/p>\n

The Owners Club Cafe itself is exclusive to the London store. It\u2019s a 550 square foot destination \u201cdedicated to coffee, matcha and community\u201d. It features a \u201cstate-of-the-art\u201d Modbar setup to serve specialty single-origin coffee roasted in collaboration with London\u2019s Plot Roasting. The Owners Club Cafe menu draws inspiration from Los Angeles\u2019 cafe culture.<\/p>\n

As for the store location, we\u2019ve already mentioned that it\u2019s becoming an ever-more-popular shopping area and neighbouring stores include Supreme, Palace, Aim\u00e9 Leon Dore, AMI, JW Anderson, and Stone Island<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Soho also offers the kind of cultural-creative-community vibe not necessarily found on traditionally dominant shopping thoroughfares like Oxford Street or Regent Street<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Co-founder\/creative director George Heaton said: \u201cOpening a London flagship is monumental. A dream of ours as young designers growing into the industry was always to open a store in the capital, and we wanted to save that moment until we could do it with full intention that really defines who and what we are as a brand. Represent is here to stay, and a physical store marks the proof.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And his fellow co-founder\/creative director, Mike Heaton, added: \u201cPlanting our flag on one of the world\u2019s most iconic retail stages \u2014 it really doesn\u2019t get much better than this. This space isn\u2019t just bricks and mortar; it\u2019s a symbol of everything we\u2019ve worked for. This milestone reflects years of dedication and the journey of building a brand from the ground up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile CEO Paul Spencer said the company has \u201cglobal ambition and we recognise London\u2019s significance as a global fashion capital. Opening our London store strengthens our positioning as a premium British brand. This flagship opening is a statement of intent. Our long-term vision is to build a brand that goes beyond product and connects through culture, community and lifestyle; which is why physical stores are so important. Along with Manchester and LA, it also acts as a blueprint for international expansion that can hopefully shape future openings in other major cities across the world.\u201d\n <\/p>\n
