ARNE, a renowned online brand offering men’s and women’s contemporary clothing and footwear, marked its return to Liverpool ONE with its second bricks-and-mortar pop-up store. This follows the brand’s successful debut activation earlier this year, which drew hundreds of visitors.
Occupying a 3,500 sq ft unit from October 14th to 15th, ARNE showcased its signature high-quality, minimalistic clothing and footwear. The pop-up also featured exclusive products and limited-edition items, attracting a large crowd. The store’s design was in sync with ARNE’s clean aesthetic, featuring simple steel walls, mirrors, and concrete floors. A VIP event was also held, allowing a select group of loyal customers to meet the founders and gain early access to exclusive merchandise.
Rob Deacon, Asset Management Director at Grosvenor, stated: “ARNE’s return to the destination for its second pop-up has been highly anticipated and further cements our reputation as a hub for pioneering, first-rate retail concepts. We are very pleased to have welcomed back ARNE for its latest pop-up which looked right at home alongside Liverpool ONE’s leading selection of internationally recognised lifestyle brands.”
Reece and Ryan Broadhurst, Co-Founders of ARNE, added: “Our first-ever pop-up at Liverpool ONE earlier this year was a huge success and we have been eager to come back to the destination ever since. We have an amazingly loyal following in Liverpool which does mean a lot since it is the city closest to where we have always lived, and so we were delighted to see such strong turn-out and enthusiasm for our latest activation.”
