New Store Opening St Nicholas Centre - Lipsy

CITY'S SHOPPING PORTFOLIO FURTHER INCREASED WITH THE ADDITION OF A NEW FASHION RETAILER

High fashion retailer, Lipsy, is to open in Aberdeen's St Nicholas Centre - the brand's only Scottish stand-alone store outwith Glasgow.

Today's announcement is the latest in a series of new store openings in the Bon Accord and St Nicholas Centres, further strengthening the shopping and fashion destination's place on the Scottish retail map.

Lipsy, which recently launched in the USA in Bloomingdales, targets females from late teens to late twenties.

The brand is most well known for its dresses which can range from £45, in the general dress section, to upwards of £200 in its VIP collections.

Popular with celebrities, famous 'Lipsy lovers' include Pixie Lott, Alexandra Burke, Paris Hilton and Girls Aloud.

"The addition of yet another top fashion brand to the centres speaks volumes about our growing reputation with fashion retailers," said Cheryl Smith, Marketing Manager of the Bon Accord and St Nicholas Centres.

"Lipsy is a very popular retailer, particularly amongst young women, and I know that this is going to be an incredibly successful addition to the St Nicholas Centre."

"It underlines the fantastic range of fashion which we now have across our two centres.  Lipsy will complement other high street favourites such as Topshop and River Island, while we boast a number of luxury brand retailers such as Hobbs, Karen Millen and Coast."

The centres also have Scotland's largest Next and Warehouse, along with flagship stores for Monsoon, and New Look and the biggest Boots' beauty hall in the North and North-east of Scotland.

The New Lipsy store will open next to Jane Norman in the St Nicholas Centre in mid July.
