Kate Spade New York and Mint Velvet launch at Liverpool One

 

Following a strong year for its retail leasing strategy, Grosvenor Europe has officially announced the launch of Kate Spade New York’s pop-up store and Mint Velvet’s new boutique at Liverpool ONE.

Both international womenswear brands will be situated on Peter’s Lane, which throughout 2019, has been further established as the destination’s hub for premium international brands.

• Kate Spade New York’s store opened on Friday 6 December at 26 Peter’s Lane, marking the luxury life and style label’s first dedicated pop-up in the UK, and first ever boutique outside of London and Scotland. Fitted out in signature tonal shades of pink, rose gold and deep green, the 2,625 sq ft store houses Kate Spade New York’s iconic handbags, ready-to-wear jewellery, footwear, gifts, home décor and more.
• Mint Velvet launched on Thursday 5 December at 29 Peter’s Lane, marking the British womenswear brand’s official debut in Liverpool. Designed by an in-house team, the 1,700 sq ft store stocks Mint Velvet’s sought-after collections of stylish, flattering and versatile clothes.

Alison Clegg, Director, Asset Management, Grosvenor Europe, commented on the openings: “We are certainly ending the year on a high with the unveiling of Kate Spade New York and Mint Velvet at the stylish destination of Peter’s Lane. It is great to have this robust line-up of brands available to Liverpool ONE customers as we approach Christmas, and look forward to seeing this momentum continue into 2020.”

The news follows a successful year of signings and openings at Peter’s Lane, including a Polo Ralph Lauren store, Jo Malone London custom perfumery, and experiential boutique for luxury jewellers ROX.
