Underlines Magazine Best Shop Awards
The Underlines Magazine, specialised in swimwear and lingerie has just awarded its Retail Award during a very glamorous night at the Cumberland Hotel. On the 8th of September 225 stores and shop brands came to the West End venue together with a selected list of journalists and personalities. The choice has been very difficult for the judges of this Award because from 450 nominations only 68 finalists made to London where only 9 category winners picked the coveted Award. Underlines Magazine and INVISTA, the owner of the Lycra fibre brand were the sponsors of this glitzy night.
Michele and Claire, the INVISTA sponsors are with Patsy from Absolutely Fabulous who hosted the event. Definitely a night with the Stars in full force here. This is the 4th year for the Underlines Magazine Best Shop Awards. The selection is very tough because the shops can't nominated themselves but they receive the nomination from a jury of 22 leading brands of intimate apparel, swimwear and legwear.
These 9 awards are going to be displayed in 9 shops, This is like the Oscar for the Retail Industry. Fenwick in Brent Cross is the winner for the Best Large Department Store, while the Best Newcomer Shop has been awarded to Lily and Grace in Forest Row. Boutique 65 in Colchester has won the award for the Best Concept Shop and Bradbeers in Romsey is the winner of the Best Independent Department Store Award.
