Fashion brands Topshop and Topman will return to the High Street as part of an in-store residency at Liberty in London.

The launch will feature a curated clothing range and immersive visual experiences in the Liberty atrium to showcase the brands.

“Through Topshop and Topman, we want to bring the best of fashion to everyone,” said Michelle Wilson, managing director at Topshop. “We’re thrilled to return to UK stores through Liberty — a brand that shares our passion for creativity, nurturing talent and pushing boundaries.

“This launch is about reconnecting with our community in real life, and we’re excited to kick things off with a full Liberty atrium takeover.”

Topshop and Topman will be available in-store at Liberty from 28 August.

In June, Topshop and Topman announced a runway show this summer to promote the relaunch of the brands’ website and present their autumn collections.

The runway show is the first that Topshop and Topman have held in seven years.

In 2021, Asos purchased the Topshop, Topman, Miss Selfridge and HIIT brands and stock from Sir Philip Green's Arcadia group.

The company paid £265 million for the brands and £30 million for the remaining stock in a deal worth £295 million.

In September last year, Asos sold its majority stake in the brands to Heartland, the investment company of Danish fashion billionaire Anders Holch Povlsen.

The deal saw Heartland acquire a 75 per cent interest in a new joint venture for £135 million, with Asos retaining a 25 per cent stake.

The move formed part of a broader refinancing effort by Asos, which sought to strengthen its balance sheet and refocus on its core business.

In addition to the Topshop sale, Asos announced a refinancing package that includes the launch of a £250 million convertible bond offering due in 2028 and the repurchase of part of its outstanding £500 million convertible bonds due in 2026.

The company has also extended its existing facilities agreement with Bantry Bay Capital to May 2027, with an option for a 12-month extension.
