The Harrods-owned brand has taken 22,500 sq ft at the scheme. The flagship store is part of the former Debenhams unit, which has now been re-let following a significant repurposing exercise, which has been central to the joint venture’s proactive asset management strategy.
The new store at Silverburn represents the brand’s sixth H beauty store and will offer a range of make-up, skincare and fragrance from a host of exciting brands – from legacy names to pioneering, next generation newcomers
This latest signing follows other recent announcements at Silverburn, including the addition of retail brands The White Company, TAG Heuer, All Saints, Polestar and Rituals and the expansion of Zara. Other new tenants at the centre, King Pins, Bread Meets Bread and The Real Greek, have further bolstered the already impressive food and beverage and leisure offer, solidifying Silverburn’s status as an integrated premium retail destination.
