Behind the scenes - London Paris Copenhagen

February 02 2014 – Mercantile London

 

Mercantile London has been hitting the road/train/plane over the last two weeks, seeking out the new and checking in with our favourite brands to see the upcoming offer for Winter 14. First up was London...as expected colour and print was used to full effect on casual, easy to layer pieces.

 

 

Loved this cute styling of knitwear over a dot print shirt. Simple but beautiful 

From London, we headed to Paris to visit our friends at  Ba&sh and pick up some new brands to freshen the store mix

Tried to sneak into this trendy Parisian fashion party, but thought better of it

Hung around the local morning market to people watch and sample the most amazing food (not the poulpe though)

Meeting with MV to discuss the details of the Winter 14 collection. 

 

Last stop Copenhagen, here we picked up two new fantastic brands, which will be bringing something completely different to the Mercantile mix and enjoyed the usual sleek Scandi styling that we love. Noted massive amounts of great outwear and the fact they are so GOOD with denim, god damn them. 

Dinner was at Nimb, (yum) lots of fashion parties going on but they managed to squeeze us in, thanks Nimb, amazing food

Stunning Nimb customer, loved the dishevelled plait combined with the ultra glam jumpsuit

 

Libertine Libertine, so excited about this collection, beautiful use of colour and print. Super friendly guys to work with too, we love Erasmus ! 

 

Food on the go, Scandi style

 

New brand, can't wait for this one
