The retailer is setting a new department dedicated to scouting and supporting young talent.

Simon Burstein’s boutique concept store has opened an outpost at 59 Brook Street across from Claridge’s in London.

The retailer celebrated its tie-in with Halpern, with burgers, music and millkshakes at Five Guys.

Ilincic, Peter Pilotto, Christopher de Vos, Sandra Choi, Molly Goddard and Nicholas Kirkwood were among the guests who turned out to mark the launch of the retailer’s concept store in Shoreditch.

The brand with roots in Tokyo and Manhattan is making inroads at retail.

The new store will shape-shift and travel the world.

As she builds the digital end, Rogers is also keen on preserving the passion — and traditions — at Browns.

His duties will include deciding on strategy, working with the management and using his tech background to help support the company’s growth.
