The new stores will host influencer events showcasing the latest fashions. “Princess Polly is a high-growth global brand that’s capturing the attention of more and more loyal customers, and we view these store openings as an opportunity to introduce new customers to our in-person brand experience,” Wez Bryett, Co-CEO of Princess Polly, says. “The five new stores will give fans a chance to touch and feel our products and to physically interact with the brand they’ve come to love online.”

Physical retail is a relatively new strategy for Princess Polly. “Our expansion into physical retail was in direct response to the demand of our customers,” Bryett tells Chain Store Age. “While our online presence continues to grow, we also recognize the desire for in-person Princess Polly experiences. The excitement from our U.S. customers since the opening of our Century City store in Los Angeles has reinforced our decision to move into the physical retail space.”

Having access to physical stores means customers won’t have to wait to pick the perfect outfit and wear it immediately. “Princess Polly is committed to bringing the latest looks and viral styles to everyday trendsetters, both online and in-person,” Bryett says. “Not only can our customers access their most wanted looks for the weekend, but they can get them fast, and with an unmatched customer experience.”
