Last Thursday, I was extremely honored to be invited to the Zara re-launch of the Manchester city store . With their poster-sized invite, I knew it was going to be a special event. After 4 months of renovation and much anticipation by many, the store is finally open again… yay!
At the morning press presentation, I was shown the new seasonal pieces in store along with the campaign videos for Woman, TRF, Man and Children’s wear. There were some pieces exclusive to that store such as the gold, blocked heeled boots and some limited edition garments.
It was a lovely chance to chat to staff and really understand the transformation of the shop from its previous state.
Here are the hottest trends for A/W13:
Tom Boy | Lingerie | Ladylike
British Plaid
Punk Rock | 90’s Tailoring | Bohemian
For the evening party, we were greeted by models wearing Zara pieces which looked amazing and everyone on the door was given a delicate pink wrist band. Whilst browsing the four floors of the new Zara, drinks were flowing and canapes were served. Being the first people to preview the store, the shopping experience was hassle free as everything was perfectly presented and tidy. It was great meeting up with some people I hadn’t seen for a while too!
The New Cathedral Street Zara is now open, so do pop in and treat yourself to some winter key pieces!
