Exactly three years ago two amazing women entered my office to explain their dream of opening a shop for urban bohemian women’s wear and they want our Abdillah Kilim Boots in their portfolio. Today they already operate two shops (and are working on the 3rd one!!!) and are still wonderful partners not only offering our boots but also our Kilim Clutch Maryam bags.
This month we present you our stockist LUV – THE SHOP, a pure highlight in Vienna’s boutique world:
Since when does LUV exist? Where can we find you and why are you exactly in that location?!
We opened our first shop on Taborstraße in February 2014, our small but fine home base. The second one followed in September 2015 on Gumpendorferstrasse. Finding the right location is always a heart- and gut feeling process and we could not be happier with the two shops.
How do you choose your partners and how many different labels are available in your shop?
We offer approx. 15 different brands – most of them from Scandinavia and the Netherlands. In terms of accessories we often choose brands from Austria. We have so many cool designers, who we want to support.
Which additional activities are scheduled for the next months? (pop-up stores, markets, sales, etc.)
We are currently planning a third dependence and are thinking of Graz, because we love the spirit and the people there.
Apart from that we love to party and organise regularly some in our two shops. In January we plan a huge LUV fleamarket in a cool location. February 18th is the birthday of LUV shop no. 1! You can follow us on Facebook and Instagram to be uptodate on all happenings.
Do you have an online-shop?
We decided to concentrate ourselves on the “real life” as we think we can do that better than being present in the digital world as well.
THANK YOU, LEENA & KARIN!
