Topshop and Topman land in John Lewis stores

Topshop has launched in 32 John Lewis stores, while Topman will be available to shop in seven locations (see below), offering customers a curated edit of its “most in-demand pieces”.

John Lewis is also Topshop’s exclusive UK stockist for its spring/summer 26 footwear collection. Topshop and Topman are also available to shop online at John Lewis and via the retailer’s app.

John Lewis was first confirmed as the brand’s latest UK stockist in September, following its long-awaited return to the high street via luxury department store Liberty in August. Topshop also opened short-term pop-ups at a small selection of John Lewis locations for the Christmas period: Bristol, Leeds, Liverpool and Oxford Street.

Topshop managing director Michelle Wilson 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.

“Partnering with John Lewis brings Topshop back to high streets across the UK with the level of service our customers expect.”

John Lewis managing director Peter Ruis added: “Topshop and Topman are brands with enormous cultural relevance, and their return to physical retail is something our customers are genuinely excited about.

“This partnership reflects our focus on bringing iconic names, strong style and compelling experiences into our stores.”

John Lewis has also announced the addition of 14 new brands to its fashion lineup to bolster its contemporary and premium fashion offer.

New womenswear brands, which launch this spring, include Belstaff, Samsoe Samsoe, Mother, St Agni, Aje, Ida Sjostedt and Faithful.

Within menswear, John Lewis will also be adding the likes of Percival, Parlez, OAS, Patagonia and Stetson to its offer.

John Lewis’s own-brand J.Lewis menswear will also be expanding into womenswear for the new season.

John Lewis has unveiled a dedicated zone for its premium fashion brands within its Oxford Street flagship store, as part of its wider multi-million pound store “transformation”.

A menswear floor redesign is also anticipated in the coming months.
