    WINDHOEK, Namibia, June 4, 2015/African Press Organization (APO)/ — It’s a fashion announcement that all stylish Namibians in the know have been waiting for – Namibia will become the first African country outside of South Africa to experience Great British Fashion, when River Island’s new flagship opens at The Grove Shopping Centre on the 12th June 2015.

    Already buzzing in South Africa with four fashionable stores, including store-in-stores at the fashion retailer, Edgars (http://www.edgars.co.za), The Grove will be the fifth stand-alone store on the continent.

    Namibians can enjoy shopping the hottest trends direct from the high street in London, with fashion- forward and affordable clothing, footwear and accessories.

    River Island is an iconic brand with Great British heritage. Founded and based in London, the business was created and is managed by the Lewis family. With design at the heart of the business, it prides itself on the ability to remain ahead of the trends and indeed to create them. With over 65 years of fashion retail experience, the brand continues to grow globally and has over 300 stores in the UK, Ireland, Russia, Poland, Holland, Belgium and the Middle East and offers worldwide shipping through its website.

    While clients of River Island are all connected by their love for fashion, the brand’s diverse collections all draw on different inspirations, enabling wearers to cultivate their own unique styles.

    River Island is constantly evolving in order to stay young, fun and vibrant. Not surprisingly its stores undergo the same evolutionary process in order to maintain their unique image. Customers can constantly expect to see new elements of surprise in shop fits and visual merchandising, bringing every season to life.
