In case you haven’t heard, we’re having our pop up all month long (until August 7th '23!) at Berkshire House in Taikoo Place, Quarry Bay. All our top rented Style Carousel pieces will be available for try on or purchase - we even have private styling appointments that you can book for you and your friends all throughout this period! What else can you find at this pop up? HULA has just launched their new, transformative retail experience – &CO.! Besides showcasing preloved garments at Berkshire House, the space will showcase a rotation of hand selected sustainable brands. Starting this month with ‘The 4 R’s’: Resale, Rent, Recycle & Restyle - with ‘Rent’ featuring Style Carousel, it’s been an honour to be part of this curated selection of innovative brands.
STYLE CAROUSEL - RENT
With 39% of Hong Kongers throwing away their clothes after a single use, it sparked an idea within the founders of Style Carousel to combat this wasteful reality. Surrounded by successful women with endless occasions to attend and overflowing designer closets, yet nothing to wear, we created the Netflix of luxury style where women can sustainably book, buy and preloved clothing on-demand. We are a circular fashion business working with verified lenders who help prolong the life of fashion pieces, from dresses to bags and accessories. Style Carousel provides an all-access experience that enables members to book from thousands of curated designer labels, boutiques, and emerging designers for an exclusive price. Instead of needing to ship returns, the pop-up will offer a new drop-off and pick-up location for the convenience of customers. At the &CO. pop-up, shoppers can come, discover and try on Style Carousel’s exclusive collections or book an appointment with a stylist for the ultimate showroom experience with a rail of handpicked items exclusively for you. You can even make it a party, book a styling appointment with us for up to 10 guests and get bubbles on us!
We’d love to introduce the other brands featured in the pop up.
KIBO - RECYCLE
Launched in 2020, KIBO was born to give waste new hope. The founders, Natalie and Simon, were determined to minimize waste, so they decided to start a brand that was different – a brand whose products weren’t just for show but had real purpose and positively impacted the planet and its people. Their shoes use apple leather, a Biobased product recycled from the waste of Apples used in the juicing industry. Kibo also turns plastic waste, such as discarded plastic water bottles, into polyester fibre knitted into all of Kibo’s shoelaces and shoe lining. They maximize comfort and support through their insoles made of natural cork, padded with a dual-density foam, keeping it anti-bacterial, anti-odour and sweat-wicking for those long days.
THE FUTURE ROCKS - RECYCLE
As a community of creators, designers, and entrepreneurs paving the way for sustainable elegance, The Future Rocks exemplify the new generation of future-forward jewellery. Their designers and collaborators span the globe, united in their shared vision of conscious luxury that marries scientific innovation, conscious creation and human craftsmanship. Aside from recycled metals rescued from discarded electronics, their designs also utilize lab-grown stones that offer endless opportunities to experiment with different cuts, styles, and unprecedented designs that cannot always be achieved with natural stones.
KITDO - RESTYLE
Kitdo provides chic and functional solutions to restyle one’s existing wardrobe pieces rather than participating in the cycle of waste creation and compulsive buying. The lightweight, two-piece magnetic clip made with environmentally friendly materials gives customers the same fix as buying new without compromising the planet. Backed by over eight years in the sustainable fashion scene, Denise Ho has redefined the concept of newness through Kitdo. Kitdo allows you to be your sustainable stylist by creating new textures and shapes with your current clothing. Inspired by the 80s tee tie and the fashion stylists’ kit, Kitdo is individually crafted to the organic shape of hag stones, making each piece one of a kind. Available in gold or silver to pair effortlessly with any colour in your wardrobe – is a long-lasting piece you’ll want to use for any occasion.
HULA - RESALE
Since 2017, HULA has grown from an online shop to two brick-and-mortar locations in Hong Kong, offering curated designer items sourced from a community of die-hard fashionistas and industry insiders. HULA is a consignment space committed to extending the life of designer pieces, making fashion more accessible The pop-up concept store showcases a rotation of sustainable brands hand-selected by HULA at their 4,000 sq ft. warehouse in Quarry Bay. With the aim to engage, inspire and educate, &CO. also hosts sustainability-focused events and activations across fashion, lifestyle, beauty and wellness, as well as discussions about inclusivity and female-driven topics.
