It aspires to take Indian designer brands global through the multi-designer online retail channel – Pernia’s Pop-Up Shop and offline stores – Pernia’s Pop-Up Studio. Since the acquisition of Pernia’s Pop-Up Shop by PSL in February 2018, they have rapidly expanded their shelf space in the last 20 months, opening eight offline stores across Mumbai, New Delhi, Bangalore and Kolkata and are now on track to be the biggest retailer of Indian designer brands across the globe.
Purple Style Labs’ much-awaited ninth store and the first international store has now launched in the heart of London’s Mayfair and is the result of a year of strategising, planning and production. London being one of the most important shopping districts in the world makes it the perfect backdrop for their first international store, be it for their loyal clients in the UK or their globetrotting clients based across the world, who visit London regularly.
Speaking about the London store launch, Purple Style Labs CEO Abhishek Agarwal said, “This has been great. We have been selling to international clients for a very long time now, so this is the first step to opening international stores in the future.”
