Bluewater is set to welcome contemporary fashion label ARNE this Saturday, 10th October. The pop up 2,799 sq ft store will be located on the Lower Guildhall next to Reiss for the next six months.
Founded eight years ago on a simple idea – creating high-quality, thoughtfully designed products at an accessible price point – ARNE has built a loyal community and established itself as one of the UK’s fastest-growing contemporary fashion brands.
The launch marks a major milestone as the brand’s first retail store in Kent, following a successful two-week pop-up store in Carnaby Street last year, with the Bluewater store set to feature the brand’s menswear, womenswear, and footwear collections.
Guests who visit on opening day can look forward to exploring exclusive product launches, special opening celebrations, and a first look at the latest ARNE collections, with the first 50 paying customers receiving a goody bag.
James Waugh, Centre Director at Bluewater, commented: “The opening of another regional-first at Bluewater reflects our ongoing commitment to bringing best-in-class brands and unique retail experiences to Kent.
“We are delighted to welcome ARNE to our line-up of retailers. The brand has built an impressive following over the last eight years, and we know our guests will be excited to explore their high-quality menswear, womenswear, and footwear collections in person from this weekend.”
The announcement of ARNE’s pop-up store forms part of a wave of new brand openings at Bluewater this autumn. This includes the arrival of fashion brands, Jack & Jones, and HUSH this week, alongside Danish lifestyle retailer Søstrene Grene later in the season. Bluewater’s food and beverage lineup has also expanded with the arrival of artisan bakery kiosk Macarooner last month, and the upcoming Kent debut of award-winning pizzeria Forbici.
