Fashion retailers Topshop and Topman have announced a runway show this summer to promote the relaunch of the brands’ website and present their autumn collections.

The runway show is the first that Topshop and Topman have held in seven years.

Open to the public, the show will be held at a London location which it has yet to announce.

It will showcase items available to buy now as well as clothing available later in the season.

Topshop and Topman have also launched an open casting in collaboration with Wilhelmina Models to offer unsigned talent the opportunity to walk the show.

Additionally, Topshop and Topman will partner with London’s local creative community to host a street party featuring live music and DJ sets following the show.

In May, Topshop opened a pop-up store for one day in London in partnership with Defected Records.

The pop-up followed the news that Topshop products will be sold through partner retailer stores, with a standalone website also being relaunched for the brand.

In 2021, Asos purchased the Topshop, Topman, Miss Selfridge and HIIT brands and stock from Sir Philip Green's Arcadia group.

The company paid £265 million for the brands and £30 million for the remaining stock in a deal worth £295 million.

Asos sold its majority stake in the brands to Heartland, the investment company of Danish fashion billionaire Anders Holch Povlsen in September 2024.

The deal saw Heartland acquire a 75 per cent interest in a new joint venture for £135 million, with Asos retaining a 25 per cent stake.
