For all the joys of summer, the arrival of a new season brings with it the sense of fresh beginnings – not least the chance to shed your warm weather wardrobe and invest in some standout pieces for autumn.
The opening of the Michael Kors store on Regent Street, then, comes at the perfect time. The highly anticipated flagship – located a short walk from Oxford Circus Tube station on one of the capital’s most luxe shopping streets – is not only a veritable destination for fashion lovers, but also a great place to find chic autumn pieces.
The store will feature a luxurious assortment of Michael Kors fashion and accessories, including ready-to-wear, footwear, handbags, and small leather goods, as well as a broad selection of leather goods, ready-to-wear, footwear, and accessories from Michael Kors Mens.
The Regent Street store marks an exciting new chapter for Michael Kors – which has been a mainstay in the capital’s luxury shopping scene since its inception back in 1981 – as it showcases the brand’s new store design concept. Reflecting Michael Kors’ signature laid-back approach to luxury, the space – which spans two floors – channels the airy, inviting ambience of a chic residence, incorporating soft, neutral tones, natural textures and a refined spectrum of materials like sleek wood flooring, plush fabrics and polished marble surfaces.
To mark the exciting new launch, the store will be hosting its very own Make Your Own Charm Bar every weekend from opening until 12 October. Running on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, Michael Kors will be collaborating with local artists to lead live creative sessions so that customers can customise the brand’s new season handbag charms.
For the Fall 25 campaign, Michael Kors captured singer and actress Suki Waterhouse, main image, among the iconic sights of Rome. The ultimate cool girl, Waterhouse exudes the jet set sensibility at the heart of Michael Kors – and what better way to see the latest collection than worn amongst the extraordinary sights of the Italian capital?
Whether she’s descending the Spanish Steps in a pair of fringed Jayla boots or passing the Trevi Fountain toting the newest edition of the brand’s iconic Hamilton handbag, Waterhouse – who also exclusively re-recorded Don Henley’s classic track “All She Wants To Do Is Dance” for the occasion – is the perfect Michael Kors muse: someone who travels the world in style.
Discover standout pieces, classic silhouettes and chic accessories with a rock’n’roll edge: think metallic studs, fringed suede and versatile leather.
Highlights include brand-new silhouettes of two of the brand’s most-loved handbags. There’s the Hamilton Moderne, which combines the timeless lines of the original with a sense of modern flair, available in a variety of new styles and materials, including rich suede, as well as a stylish new iteration of the beloved Nolita. With a more compact silhouette and an adjustable shoulder strap, it can be worn as a sleek messenger-style shoulder bag or a versatile cross-body.
Plus, all-new bag charms for FW25 – available in bubble initials, hearts, braided cords and more – just made accessorising even more fun.
The jet set lifestyle is one that requires a certain level of effortlessness, and these new arrivals provide just that. Consider this collection the ultimate globetrotting uniform.
