Chopova Lowena opens new store, GalactaMag reports

Chopova Lowena has opened its first standalone store in east London, adding a permanent retail space after years of selling through stockists and its own website. GalactaMag flagged the opening in an X post on September 8, and multiple fashion outlets reported in late August and early September that the label’s new space is called the Chopova Lowena Clubhouse. The store is at 84 Teesdale Street in Bethnal Green, according to those reports and the brand’s own stockists page. The opening gives founders Emma Chopova and Laura Lowena-Irons an owned bricks-and-mortar site in London, where the label has built its reputation through runway shows, wholesale partners and direct online sales. Chopova Lowena’s website now lists the Clubhouse alongside retailers including Dover Street Market London, Bergdorf Goodman and SSENSE. ### Where exactly is the new Chopova Lowena store? The new store is at 84 Teesdale Street, Bethnal Green, in east London, according to AnOther, Wonderland and other retail coverage published around the launch. (anothermag.com) A separate event listing said the store opened on August 28, 2026. Word Power, which also reported on the opening, said the Clubhouse is open Thursday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. (chopovalowena.com) Chopova Lowena’s website includes a “Store Hours” link in its footer, reinforcing that the brand is now operating a dedicated physical retail point. ### Is this a first for the brand? Dazed described the Clubhouse as Chopova Lowena’s “first-ever owned and operated retail space,” while AnOther called it the brand’s first store. (anothermag.com) Those descriptions match the brand’s own public retail setup, which had previously centered on third-party stockists in the UK, U.S., Europe and Asia. The stockists page is the clearest company-controlled evidence of that shift. (word-power.co.uk) It now names “Chopova Lowena Clubhouse” in the UK section above other retail partners, indicating the store has been added to the brand’s formal distribution network. ### What is inside the Clubhouse? AnOther reported that the store includes custom furniture made with David Pringle, light fixtures by Saelia Aparicio and vases by Alake Shilling. Dance Wax reported that the space also has a central jewelry table and a custom “Skirt Bar,” where visitors can build a Chopova Lowena skirt using belts, buckles and deadstock or vintage textiles available only in-store. (dazeddigital.com) (chopovalowena.com) Wonderland said the Clubhouse is intended to function as both a shop and a meeting point, with exclusive pieces, pop-ups and events planned through the year. That description has not been separately detailed on the brand’s own site, but it has been repeated in launch coverage tied to the opening. ### Why did the opening get attention on September 8? GalactaMag mentioned the store opening in an X post on September 8 alongside its autumn fashion notes on flannel, henleys and blue tones, putting the retail launch into the day’s broader trend conversation. (anothermag.com) The store itself, however, appears to have opened earlier, with coverage dating from August 28 through September 1. That timing matters because the social post was not the first notice of the opening. (wonderlandmagazine.com) It was a same-day mention of a launch that had already been covered by fashion publications and reflected on the brand’s own retail pages. ### What can shoppers verify now? Chopova Lowena’s website currently shows the Clubhouse on its stockists page and continues to sell the Autumn/Winter 2026 collection online. The site also lists product categories ranging from skirts and dresses to bags, fragrance and jewelry, giving shoppers a way to compare the brand’s direct e-commerce offer with what is now available at the Bethnal Green store. (retailboss.co) At 84 Teesdale Street, the next concrete step is the store’s regular trading schedule and any in-person activations the brand chooses to announce through the Clubhouse. (chopovalowena.com) The stockists page and store-hours information are the clearest public references for that next phase. (word-power.co.uk)
