Lone Design Club

LDC unites independent designers in hosting experience led concept stores

A collective of British Fashion + Lifestyle brands uniting their resources, audiences and reach to host pop ups.

A Department Store For Online Emerging Brands: Welcome To The First Co.Lab In Wales 13/08/2024

We are excited to announce the launch of CO.LAB, an innovative pop-up micro-retail destination by Landsec and Lone Design Club, set to redefine the shopping experience.

Launching 26th of September 2024 at St. David’s Dewi Sant, CO.LAB transforms 5,000 square feet of prime retail space into a vibrant shopping destination where brands can test, experiment, and grow.

The retail landscape is evolving, and CO.LAB is at the forefront, making it easier than ever for D2C brands to establish a physical presence. By breaking down traditional barriers that have kept emerging brands out of brick-and-mortar spaces, it offers bespoke shop-in-shop units tailored to their needs. Beyond just retail, CO.LAB’s dynamic shared event space creates opportunities for brands to engage directly with customers and the community.

“32% of D2C brands said they would be establishing or expanding their use of pop-up and in-person experiences this year, with 31% planning on establishing or expanding their physical retail footprints”.

We’re looking for emerging brands, entrepreneurs, and creatives ready to elevate their retail presence. Don’t miss your chance to be part of the next big thing in retail with CO.LAB!

A Department Store For Online Emerging Brands: Welcome To The First Co.Lab In Wales Landsec and Lone Design Club have chosen Cardiff to test their debut department store for emerging D2C brands. The partnership, called Co.Lab will roll out in the U.K.

Everyone is talking about upcycling ♻️

It’s revolutionising the fashion industry by turning waste into wearable art. Upcycled fashion reduces waste and celebrates creativity, transforming discarded materials into high-fashion pieces and emphasising sustainability and individuality.
