LAB Concept, a subsidiary of iconic luxury department store Lane Crawford, which opened a new contemporary fashion destination in Queensway Plaza, Hong Kong, in 2012, will manage the TOPSHOP business, providing the retail space and operational expertise, including staff and logistics support.
A TOPSHOP corner will also open in LAB Concept at Queensway Plaza later this year.
Andrew Keith, President of Lane Crawford, said: "From our own businesses, we've seen the growing demand from customers who want accessibility to fashion and beauty without compromise on design or trend. TOPSHOP is going to give them that and more -- an unparalleled experience with cool product and great service in a dynamic environment that makes shopping fun."

About TOPSHOP: Since it launched in 1964, TOPSHOP has become a major British style authority and one of fashion’s biggest success stories. In 1994, a TOPSHOP flagship store was born, as the brand took over a 90,000 sq ft space at London Oxford Circus in the heart of the West End. It remains there today, and is considered the world’s largest fashion store on the high street, attracting over 200,000 shoppers each week. In the USA there are flagship stores in New York and Chicago, and Las Vegas which opened in March 2012 within Fashion Show Mall. TOPSHOP is the only high street brand to show on schedule at London Fashion Week, and has recently celebrated ten years of sponsoring New Gen – supporting young British designers and giving them a platform to show within LFW and promote their collections to the international press. It was announced at LFW in February of this year, that TOPSHOP will extend its sponsorship of this scheme for a further ten years. A pioneer of design collaborations, TOPSHOP is also well know for nurturing of young talent, including Christopher Kane, Meadham Kirchoff, Hussein Chalayan, Richard Nicoll and Mary Kantranzou. In addition, the Boutique collection offers reworked future classics in luxurious fabrics with a focus on style rather than seasonal trends. All this sits alongside TOPSHOP’s trend-driven mainline, which includes glamorous going out pieces, footwear, accessories and an extensive selection of denim and jewellery. A recently launched line is TOPSHOP Make-up. Tapping into a wealth of existing knowledge of the hottest trends, the TOPSHOP design team has developed a directional and fashion led way of approaching colour in cosmetics. TOPSHOP has 319 stores in the UK, with a further 137 international franchises operating in 37 countries. The USA sites are fully owned flagship stores, rather than franchise partners. About LAB Concept: LAB Concept is the contemporary retail management arm of Lane Crawford, working in partnership with leading contemporary brands. It operates a 64,000 square feet mall under the banner of LAB Concept in Hong Kong’s Queensway Plaza. The mall features its own edit of contemporary fashion brands, an international cosmetic and skincare offer by Facesss and the latest, must-have footwear and accessories brands by Pedder Group’s shoespace. A selection of food and dining concepts completes the experience. Reported by Media OutReach 2 hours ago.
