Prepare for a fashion revolution with Depop, the leading circular marketplace, as it collaborates with premier retail pop-up provider, Sook, to unveil a series of high-profile temporary stores over the next six months. Featuring prominent locations such as London’s renowned Oxford Street, South Molton Street, Birmingham Bullring, Liverpool One, and Edinburgh’s St James Quarter, this initiative is set to redefine the intersection of online and physical retail.
In an exciting development announced recently, Depop is set to launch four immersive pop-ups in London in November and December. These free-to-attend events, taking place on November 30 and December 15-16, and 22-24, promise to bring the best of Depop to life, encouraging a surge in secondhand shopping and injecting life into the high street for the festive season.
Central to this experience are 11 unique sellers, each taking the spotlight in Sook’s pop-up spaces in Central London. Kicking off the series on November 30 is streetwear brand Kathandrosa, offering a curated selection of handpicked vintage and Y2K pieces at the South Molton Street location.
Continuing the fashion spectacle, casualwear sites Celiapops, Alicefletchf, and Reloadedldn will showcase their curated collections of Y2K styles, handpicked designer pieces, and original designs at Sook’s Oxford Street retail space on December 15-16.
As the series approaches its festive climax, Chrissynx, Shophenri, Jwarren, and Katierowe100 will commandeer Oxford Street from December 22-24, presenting their handpicked vintage and 00’s styles. The 2023 series concludes on December 30 with Imdesigns, Elianaavinntage, and Ellboll taking center stage at the Oxford Street location.
