Lone Design Club (LDC) is set to open its inaugural pop-up store in Canary Wharf this May, bringing a fresh spotlight to ethical fashion and lifestyle brands with the launch of “The Escape (To) The City” pop-up store. This new venture will include LDC’s first dedicated LDC Mini section, designed to cater to eco-conscious families by featuring conscious children’s, pet, and maternity brands.
Scheduled to open on Wednesday, 15th May, the pop-up will introduce Canary Wharf’s workers and residents to a selection of upcoming brands that focus on sustainability, not previously available in the area. The store aims to be more than just a shopping destination; it will provide a platform for attendees to engage with the visionary designers behind the brands. The event will also host exclusive weekly happenings such as interactive workshops, wellness sessions, and previews of new launches.

Featured brands will include Philly and Friends, an educational brand that combines play with learning and diversity, and Petit Pli, which offers innovative children’s clothing that adjusts through seven sizes and is made from recycled water bottles.
