Womenswear retailer Warehouse is to open a new 2,500 sq ft flagship store on Oxford Street next spring. The retailer closed its previous store in the Plaza shopping centre on Oxford Street three years ago.

The former Monsoon site will feature the new look which Warehouse is currently rolling out to its store estate, with exposed brickwork, poured concrete and a layout that makes the changing rooms into a prominent feature of the design.

Brand director Paula Stewart commented: “Average transaction value is higher in our refitted stores. They are delivering up to 20% of transactions in the lounge areas every week.”
Warehouse and Oasis chief executive Liz Evans added: “Our shareholders are absolutely committed to international and digital growth but we are really committed to investing in our home UK market and putting our brand showcase stores out.”
