Korean-inspired lifestyle brand Ilahui is to open its first UK store in Buchanan Galleries.
The shop is one of two new openings at the Glasgow city centre shopping centre at the end of this month, as luxury accessories brand Radley moves from its current outlet at Princes Square.
Ilahui is a Los Angeles-based company with more than 1500 stores worldwide, selling everything from bags to stationery, homeware and, wait for it, hand sanitisers. Bring a trolley.
Radley, whose handbags and accessories are recognisable for their Scottie dog logo, will sell its signature women’s collection, footwear, men’s bags and accessories in a prime 1200 sq ft ground floor store.
Kevin Morris, head of retail at Radley, said; “We are thrilled to be opening a new store within the beautiful Buchanan Galleries. Glasgow has fast become one of the top retail destinations in the UK and we’re delighted to be stamping the Radley paw print on this dynamic city with a crisp new store design.
“The location of the centre was an obvious draw for the brand, and the store aligns with a new approach to our retail ambitions that will see Radley continue to have a strong presence on the British High Street, delivering the very best experience for customers both in terms of location, product curation and size. Small but perfectly formed some would say.”
Rob Hardie, portfolio director at Buchanan Galleries owner Landsec, said; “We are delighted to welcome Radley and Ilahui to Buchanan Galleries this spring. Both brands will take up prime locations on the ground floor, near John Lewis, and will add a new dimension to our already strong retail line up”.
