Quantum of Style

In anticipation of the long awaited return of 007 to the big screen, we decided to pay homage to the style icon that is Bond, James Bond! The new movie Quantum of Solace is the second of the Bond films to star heart throb Daniel Craig and is set to take the box office by storm. Ram packed with the usual dose of girls, fast cars, great music and unbeatable style, this film will make you wish you were a special agent! Well at least you can dress like one with the smooth styles below.

REPUBLIC OPENS FIRST LONDON STORE!

We’re very excited to to announce the opening of our first London store in Westfield, London, on Thursday 30th October 2008. Westfield, the biggest shopping destination in Europe, boasts 265 luxury, premium and high street retailers from more than 15 different countries.

Our fabulous new store will showcase a unique mix of the best brands on the high street including Soul Cal, Henleys, Fenchurch, Miso and Crafted alongside G-Star and Bench branded zones.

Designed in our ‘utilitarian meets kitsch’ inimitable style, the store will feature a striking fascia framed with iron girders, exposed brick and pipe work and natural materials offset by candy coloured chandeliers, metallic and flocked wallpapers and music fly posters.  And of course, our expert staff will be on hand to ensure you have all the fashion help and advice you need.

We’ve already established a reputation as the destination for branded fashion in the UK and look forward to introducing ourselves to the capital.  As a trusted house of brands, we edit the best of each season to ensure only the hottest looks are available and this Autumn Winter is no exception.

To celebrate the opening of the new store we’ve teamed up with local radio stations ‘XFM’ and ‘Choice FM’ to officially mark the opening and give 6 lucky listeners the opportunity to win a £250 Republic  make-over and consultation with celebrity stylist Sophie Lopez! The Metro London will also be running a competition on Thursday 30th October for one lucky reader to win shopping spree worth £1000! All of this, plus customers can take advantage of great value promotions including Any 2 for £50 on selected products including coats and jeans, and Any 2 for £30 on selected products including tees and sweats.  See you there!

Efron’s effortless style.

The film premiere of High School Musical 3 took place in Munich, Germany last week. The eagerly awaited third instalment of the Disney blockbuster follows the famous students as they graduate from high school. Turning out en masse to promote their latest venture, the cast were in a class of their own as they hit the red carpet in style. Leading man, Zac Efron (who plays Troy) gave the traditional shirt and tie combo a modern twist by teaming the duo with a pair of tight fitting jeans and added an air of sophistication with a navy over coat. His new, young yet debonair look gains him a definite A plus in the style assessments!
