Store descrip­tion

Since its launch in 1964, in the base­ment of the depart­ment store of Peter Robin­son, this Eng­lish brand has become a major author­ity and one of the fashion’s biggest suc­cess sto­ries with more than 300 shops scat­tered around the United King­dom and over 100 in inter­na­tional ter­ri­to­ries, includ­ing a US flag­ship store in New York.

The iconic Top­shop store, estab­lished in Lon­don in 1994, is con­sid­ered the world’s largest fash­ion store on the high street, attract­ing over 200,000 shop­pers each week.

Topshop.com, online since the year 2000, ships to over 30 inter­na­tional des­ti­na­tions and offers cus­tomers in the United States the oppor­tu­nity to shop in US cur­rency and sizes on the ded­i­cated site, us.topshop.com.

The site, which is updated five times per week, rep­re­sents a point of ref­er­ence for all the fash­ion addicts of the world. With such a huge and var­ie­gated offer, going through the Web Por­tal could give you the same feel­ing of pos­i­tive perdi­tion that you would per­ceive when cross­ing the thresh­old of the store at Oxford Cir­cus where it is really easy to lose track of time. In all cases, thumbs up to the struc­ture of the web­site for its excel­lent nav­i­ga­tion, which clev­erly guides users through huge offers and moves effi­ciently through detailed sec­tions and offers the pos­si­bil­ity of using fil­ters in order to accel­er­ate the search. The cat­e­gories, in addi­tion to the tra­di­tional ones sorted by cloth­ing, acces­sories, etc…, also delin­eate spe­cial spaces char­ac­ter­ized by a dif­fer­ent approach to fash­ion. Here are the main ones:

DESIGNERS & COLLECTIONS: Top­shop has fur­ther cemented the brand’s rep­u­ta­tion founded in 1998 as a pro­moter and sup­porter of emerg­ing design­ers through the real­iza­tion of lim­ited edi­tions pro­duced exclu­sively for the store. Fur­ther­more, through a project called EMERGE, since 2010, Top­shop has been endors­ing niche inter­na­tional labels. UNIQUE: Since 2005, Top­shop has been mod­el­ing its own in-house design col­lec­tion, Unique, at the Lon­don Fash­ion Week. This line is made up of bold pieces, char­ac­ter­ized by an irrev­er­ent approach to style for those who like to stay ahead of the times. BOUTIQUE: Here you can find impor­tant pieces that give char­ac­ter to your wardrobe as well as high qual­ity basic pieces. This range of prod­ucts, made of high qual­ity mate­ri­als like cash­mere and silk, offers time­less, pass-partout pieces that will last many sea­sons. STUDIO: A space ded­i­cated to inter­na­tional cutting-edge and trendy brands which are selected by the team of Top­shop and show­cased through key pieces which are the result of a clever mix­ture between cloth­ing and acces­sories. MOTO: An area totally devoted to denim. FREEDOM: A line of inex­pen­sive jew­elry, exclu­sively designed for Top­shop, the result of a clever mix of the past and con­tem­po­rary look with a cutting-edge twist. Updated with 400 new items every month, it is the ideal place to find the right acces­sory for that spe­cial occa­sion. The HOTSHOP sec­tion fea­tures hol­i­day chic cloth­ing and acces­sories, from bathing suits to cover-ups, whereas in the SNOW sec­tion you can go wild with win­ter sports cloth­ing so that you can ski in style. It is also worth men­tion­ing the TALL and PETITE lines, where rich selec­tions of items suit­able for tall and petite frame girls are show­cased, so that both tall and thin girls do not have to worry about find­ing the right fit with­out hav­ing to resort to expen­sive alter­ations. MATERNITY is the sec­tion that caters to the cloth­ing needs of expec­tant moms. For those who are over­whelmed by these rich choices, there are two big helps: LOOKBOOK where var­i­ous looks are show­cased, cre­ated with the arti­cles for sale and inspired by dif­fer­ent themes, or FEATURES that deals with dif­fer­ent top­ics and where you can find prod­ucts and sug­ges­tions for that spe­cial occa­sion. Worth check­ing out is the BEAUTY sec­tion, whereas the GIFTS sec­tion show­cases great gift ideas.

The aun­tie likes it because

• The BEAUTY sec­tion, in addi­tion to offer­ing a vast range of inex­pen­sive prod­ucts, it pro­pones TUTORIAL VIDEOS; i.e., films through which use­ful tips on how to apply makeup (they are not as good as the CLIO’s tuto­r­ial videos, nev­er­the­less there is always some­thing new to learn). You should also give the VIRTUAL MAKEOVER tool a try, where by upload­ing a pic­ture of your­self you can vir­tu­ally test makeup prod­ucts so you find the one that best suits your skin before buy­ing it.

• If you access the por­tal WRITE A REVIEW, in the com­ment box of each arti­cle, you can write a prod­uct review to inform Top­shop and other con­sumers about your opin­ions and per­sonal evaluations.

   

• For each prod­uct visu­al­ized, you have the choice of check­ing, through the “check stores” but­ton whether the arti­cle you would like to pur­chase is avail­able in your size and desired color at the store near you so that you can buy it immediately.
