Central London’s department stores continue to attract brands for pop-ups and permanent spaces with Selfridges, Harrods and Liberty all adding key names recently.
Luxury lifestyle brand Smythson of Bond Street has opened a new concession in the latter. It’s in Liberty’s homewares department on the third floor. The brand’s signature diaries, notebooks, and stationery, along with a selection of leather accessories and a curated edit of the brand’s bestselling bags are all on offer with personalisation also available.
The brands have developed an exclusive limited-edition range of Smythson x Liberty products with the first collection having just launched. There’s a selection of signature notebooks and diaries in Liberty Purple, Smythson’s Nile Blue, and a seasonal Coral colourway, each lined with a Liberty silk in coordinating colours. The second edit, launching in November, will feature a range of bestselling accessories.
Meanwhile UK-based padel apparel brand Pulco has debuted at Harrods, becoming the store’s first-ever padel clothing label, underlining the sport’s surging popularity.
Products on offer include the key Aircon shirt made from an ultra-lightweight, Italian-engineered fabric “featuring a breakthrough weave that rapidly wicks moisture from the inside out, delivering unrivalled breathability and comfort in play”.
But as well as performance-wear, there’s a full lifestyle offering “blending elevated athletic apparel with understated, off-court elegance”. That means shirts, shorts, hoodies, jackets, T-shirts, sweatpants, caps, socks and more. Retail prices range from £10 up to £165.
And back in the West End, Samsøe Samsøe has moved to a new space within Selfridges that presents the Scandinavian brand’s contemporary womenswear “within the universe of its experiential design”. The pop-up revolves around the AW25 collection that also inspires the space, “which emulates the immersive ‘Radiant Connection’ exhibition” that Samsøe Samsøe introduced the collection with during Copenhagen Fashion Week.
Set against the backdrop of the exhibition’s set design and illustrated by the lookbook imagery of the season, the pop-up “becomes illuminated with the lime green shade that defines the visual identity” of the collection.
The brand said the pop-up is a “next step within Samsøe Samsøe’s ever-increasing focus on the UK market” and should help it reach new consumers.

Bangladesh’s garment exports to the US surged 24.49 per cent in the first six months of 2025 to $4.24 billion, led by trousers and shorts, which made up 45.65 per cent of shipments.
Despite a heavy effective tariff burden of 35–36.5 per cent, Bangladesh has retained its dominance in bottom-wear exports due to strong price competitiveness.

FIEO president S C Ralhan described the development as a severe setback, warning that around 55 per cent of India’s US-bound shipments, worth approximately $47–48 billion, now face pricing disadvantages of 30–35 per cent. This, he said, makes Indian products uncompetitive compared to those from China, Vietnam, Cambodia, the Philippines, and other Asian producers.
FIEO has warned that the US’ additional 25 per cent tariff on Indian goods, raising duties to nearly 50 per cent, threatens $47–48 billion in exports, hitting textiles, leather, and other labour-intensive sectors.
President S C Ralhan urged urgent government support, credit relief, expanded PLI schemes, FTAs, and stronger diplomacy with Washington to sustain competitiveness.
The textile and apparel hubs of Tiruppur, Noida, and Surat have already reported production halts due to eroding cost competitiveness. Other labour-intensive sectors including leather, ceramics, chemicals, handicrafts, and carpets are also expected to face order cancellations and reduced global competitiveness, FIEO said in a press release.
In response, the president urged immediate government intervention. Suggested measures include interest subvention schemes, enhanced export credit support, low-cost lending for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), and a one-year moratorium on loan repayments. He also called for automatic credit limit enhancements of 30 per cent, collateral-free lending on emergency credit line guarantee scheme (ECLGS) lines and expanded production-linked incentive (PLI) schemes.
FIEO further emphasised the need for aggressive market diversification through fast-tracked free trade agreements (FTAs) with the EU, GCC, Africa, and Latin American nations, alongside investments in cold-chain and storage infrastructure. While diversification is key, the president underlined that urgent diplomatic engagement with Washington remains critical.
Promoting ‘Brand India’ through global branding, innovation, and quality certifications was also highlighted as a long-term strategy. FIEO has appealed for swift, coordinated action between exporters, industry bodies, and the government to safeguard livelihoods and maintain India’s export momentum in the face of escalating trade headwinds.
