Volume 91: Topshop and Topman Vancouver store grand opening at the Hudson's Bay Company inside Pacific Centre on October 17, 2012. Hashtag: #topshopbayvan / #topshopcanada. More photos available on Flickr and Tumblr.
Topshop, Topshop, Topshop. That's all I was hearing about the last few days.
The iconic The Bay has done a top to bottom revamp and remodel, culminating in the UK fashion store and brand's grand debut today.
I previewed the spacious shop, the second biggest in the world, full of women's (Topshop) and men's (Topman) fashion aimed at young, affluent professionals with style and substance.
All 33,000 square feet of the basement shop makes for the biggest of its kind outside of the UK with a few Brits from the mothership brought in to keep the authentic "top" experience including complementary (drop in/by appointment) personal shopping for les femmes et les hommes.
Topshop and Topman opens today, right now actually. However, I'm pretty sure you already know that and are reading this while in line, waiting to get in... and shop. Everyone expects the trendy shop inside The Hudson's Bay Co. to be packed full of fashionistas of every kind.
