Topshop and Topman 's relaunch is a big deal for the labels and so far has included a campaign, a one-day pop-up, news of the labels being made available via other retailer's physical stores and more.
And now there's another big step as they prepare to hit the runways. Topshop was one of the first fashion brands to appear on the designer runways and while its presence at London Fashion Week is now a distant memory, along with Topman it will be back on its own runway later this summer.
After seven years away from the catwalks, Topshop and Topman are staging a joint show next month 'to celebrate the relaunch of Topshop.com' and debut their AW25 collections.
The product on show will include see-now, buy-now pieces as well as an early preview of items set to drop later in the season.
What that means for Topshop is an autumn-winter season of 'sharp tailoring, statement outerwear, standout dresses and must-have denim pieces'.
For Topman it's all about redefining 'modern utility by blending refined formalwear with sharp new silhouettes, while casual pieces are grounded by authentic denim in deep indigos'.
One difference from past appearances at LFW are that the show will be open to the public, with more details available later this summer.
The show will also come with a London street party featuring live music, DJ sets, and surprise guests.
For now, the retailer has launched an open casting in collaboration with Wilhelmina Models, London, 'offering new, unsigned talent the opportunity to walk the show'. Applications are open and close on 4 August.
