Browns focus

BROWNS FOCUS

Modern, luxurious, Established brands

The outfit in the window has quite a young, sort of fresh, trendy look to it, along with the accessories too.

I think this display definately reflects what the whole store is all about.

 The window displays at Browns focus are very glitzy and glamorous, which  is what I think makes it look more modern than the other browns stores from outside. You can tell from the window displays what the inside the store would be like and found that quite inviting. Inside the store the music is very relaxed and tranquil, the Decor is beautifully done, with dark woods, deep warm colours, gold metals and rich tones everywhere. The whole atmosphere was quite pleasant and somehow quite relaxed, although the staff weren't very welcoming, perhaps it was the music that set the mood inside the store..

BROWNS

BROWNS STORE, South Molton Street

Extravagant, sumptuous, indulgence

 Browns store is located on South Molton Street. There are three different Browns stores on this street and I think each of the stores are all different to each other in many ways, but of course still have the same price tags. The main store is Browns which is the largest store, and across from here is Browns focus which, just from the outside looks to me more visually appealling. Towards the end of the street there is Browns Labels For Less.

 New festive window displays...

 Quite traditional illustrations and christmas themed decorations in window display.

 The window displays shows the variety of things they have to offer, showing that they not only sell clothing but also fragrances, candles, books and home accessories..

Start

The idea for Start came from the observation that there was nowhere to shop for designer fashion in the trendy up and coming Shoreditch. After the opening in 2002, the store has expanded twice: in 2004 a larger women´s clothing section was opened across the road, then in 2008 Philip Start opened his men´s tailoring line, Mr Start. What will he, with his wife Brix Smith-Start, think of next? She, the former guitarist of the post-punk band the Fall, has appeared many times on TV(the store itself has a TV channel on youtube and most of it is about her wanders in the fashion circles.) She was also a 'fashion expert' in Gok´s Fashion Fix. If anything, it looks as if Brix is obsessed with publicity, either for herself or for Start...

Hoxton Boutique and surrounding areas

damn at blogspot for making the photos smaller and bad quality...

The Hoxton Boutique is very proud of its location, in the trendy Shoreditch area where people may look dirty and careless but who have actually thought a lot about their outfits. Being unique and different is everything and you can´t help noticing the stylish youth wandering around(this may partly be due to the fact there is a UAL student hall quite close by.)
The Hoxton Boutique is also quite lucky because you can´t actually see many other fashion shops around it. There is the Hoxton Square, with bars, restaurants and the famous White Cube gallery, as well as other bars around the corner but that´s mainly it. The Hoxton Boutique has always wanted to avoid being branded as a 'high street shop', and in this it succeeds well. Anyone looking for something fun and unique should pop by although the prices aren´t the most affordable.
