You can shop ASOS IRL at the brand's first-ever U.S. pop-up this week in NYC
Want to give your wardrobe a summery boost? You can do what you usually do and give the "New In" section of ASOS a quick digital browse— or you can shop that beloved British retailer IRL at the brand's first-ever U.S. pop-up store, which has taken over Soho 's 120 Wooster Street through Sunday, June 22.
'Bringing its trend-forward aesthetic to SoHo, NYC, one of the city's most iconic neighbourhoods for style and culture," per the brand, the immersive two-story pop-up shop features a curated edit of spring/summer 2025 styles across women's and men's clothing, accessories, and shoes, spanning exclusive drops, seasonal pieces and e-commerce collections.
Shoppers are able to peruse both ASOS-owned and partner brands, including Arrange, ASOS's "premium, craft-focused label designed in London by a women-led team (and yes, that does mean dresses with pockets)" that launched this past March. And as with the usual ASOS digital experience, the sartorial stock at the pop-up boutique is separated into themed sections (think "Euro Summer" and "Party Vibes"), with items priced between ten bucks and $300.
Can't find your size or favorite color in store? Given that ASOS is first and foremost an "e-tailer," customers will be able to scan the QR code on any given item, which will then take them to the product's specific purchase URL on the ASOS website.
The UK-based fashion giant, which boasts 20 million active customers in over 200 markets worldwide, debuted its first pop-up store in London in November 2023. And if all goes well in New York, the retailer will continue to expand its physical presence stateside with even more planned activations throughout the U.S.
"Right now, this is a test-and-learn moment," Sean Trend, ASOS' Managing Director, told Forbes. "We're focused on making this first activation a success and exploring how we might bring similar experiences to other U.S. cities. While permanent retail isn't the immediate plan, if the response is strong, we would love to take the concept to other cities, and we may even invite our customers to help decide where we go next."

MP Peter Prinsley opens new parliamentary office in Stowmarket
An MP has opened a new parliamentary office in a market town after it felt "like the right thing to do".Dr Peter Prinsley, Labour MP for Bury St Edmunds and Stowmarket, opened the office about a year after being elected. The MP will hold surgeries at his new office in 4 Market Place, in Stowmarket. Dr Prinsley told the Local Democracy Reporting Service: "It did feel to me like putting the office in Stowmarket made sense. There had never previously been any parliamentary office here; it felt like the right thing to do." The MP officially opened the office by cutting a red ribbon with the help of his wife, Dr Marian Prinsley, on Friday."Stowmarket is a really lovely little town, and we are very pleased to be able to be here," he added. The MP and his staff had been using the space for several months but had to delay the opening date until security provisions could be Waterman, labour councillor and leader at West Suffolk Council, said the opening was great news for Bury St Edmunds. "He's saying 'here I am, come talk to me' and I think that's what an MP should be doing," he added. His office will employ four people regularly, in a mix of part-time and full-time roles, and will eventually offer internships and work experience Prinsley said: "I'm usually here at the end of the week – I hope people might spot me, we're definitely open to people coming to see us."

Mr Warwick said the final week of trading had been "incredibly busy", with many customers coming in to share stories and memories of visiting."A lot of people just wanted to come in and say 'wow, I used to come here with my dad, grandad... so many people," said Mr Warwick. "People have travelled in from miles away."The shop was opened in 1868 by his great, great, grandfather Samuel Warwick and then passed down to five other Warwicks - Harry, Cyril, his father Alan, and then to Neil and his brother David. He said when David died in 2019 it made him realise he wanted a "new adventure" and there were "other things in life", adding he would "spend a bit more time enjoying life", starting by taking his wife on holiday."We've recently become grandparents and have lots of nice things to do. I'm sure I won't get bored," he said. 'Last bastion of town' The shop used to make its own suits but stopped in the 1960s when ready-made wear became popular. It also sold school uniforms until 15 years ago, when online retail really took before the store closed its doors for good, customers shared their sadness at the end of Warwicks. Barry Day travelled from Bozeat for one last visit."My relationship with the shop goes back over 25 years," the 67-year-old explained. "I would buy uniforms for my son. They've got really good quality men's clothes. It will be a sad loss."This is a foundation of Wellingborough... I don't think you'll get a quality shop like this ever again." Colin Gilmour, 76, lives in Earls Barton but grew up in said visiting the town used to be a "day out" for him in his youth."It [Warwicks] is one of the last bastions of Wellingborough. It's sad but things move on I suppose." Follow Northamptonshire news on BBC Sounds, Facebook, Instagram and X.
