Shaftesbury Capital signs Charlotte Tilbury in latest addition to Carnaby Street
High-end beauty brand Charlotte Tilbury is set to join London Soho's latest line-up of newcomers later this year, opening an anchor gateway unit on globally-renowned Carnaby Street. Spanning 4,200 sq ft, the unit will be located at one of the busiest entrance points to Carnaby Street, giving the brand 'a huge presence at the top of the iconic shopping destination', says operator Shaftesbury Capital. And continuing the location's fresh appeal, it joins recent arrivals PureSeoul, Tala, and Farm Rio and pop-ups for emerging brands De La Vali and Speltham. Charlotte Tilbury has already made a significant impact on Shaftesbury Capital's West End portfolio, with the recent opening of its upsized flagship store in Covent Garden, which tripled in size at the end of last year. Founder Charlotte Tilbury herself, who's also its president, chairwoman and chief creative officer, said: 'London's limitless spirit of creativity and self-expression is so inspiring! From the early days of my career as a make-up artist setting beauty trends at the seminal shows of London Fashion Week through to launching my first ever counter at Selfridges -- the city has played such an integral part in my career. It's the city where I opened my first ever Beauty Wonderland, and Covent Garden is now home to my biggest flagship store – it's an innovative, immersive hub of beauty education, expertise and artistry, a re-imagining of the customer experience.' William Oliver, director of Retail & Restaurant Leasing at Shaftesbury Capital, added: 'Charlotte Tilbury is theatrical and immersive, something that mirrors the foundation and heritage of Carnaby Street, and its global appeal and innovative approach are the qualities we look for, to ensure we deliver the elevated retail experience people have come to expect here.'
