Abercrombie and Fitch in London

    AF

    Wondering what to do with our lunch break today, an unusually cloudy day for the April we have had so far, Lainie and myself ventured to check the new Abercrombie store just off Regent street (Savile Row). I was a little dubious about the store’s launch in the UK, as I quite liked returning from the States with an item of clothing that wasn’t available in the UK. However I would like to say the motivation was the clothing, but I’m afraid it was to put to rest the rumour of semi naked male-models parading around the store.

    A wise man once said “I’m pretty sure there’s a lot more to life than being really, really good looking” (Derek Zoolander, 2001). After visiting the store I would have to say that is false!! The gorgeous sales assistants/footy-captain-style models are enough to make you want to browse the store a little longer and probably make purchases you didn’t really want.

    In all honestly, we liked the layout and concept of the store, a grade 2 listed building with lots of small wooden rooms and the American varsity style paintings, giving it the ‘All American’ feel the US stores all have. However, the prices were much higher than the American stores, and despite all the eye-candy, we left empty handed… well… unless you count the phone number Lainie got! Not a complete failed shop!

    Check out Abercrombie (and the topless man on the door!) at 7 Burlington Gardens, London ,W1S 3ES.

        Whilst browsing Abercrombie and Fitch on the internet in the UK, I came across a women’s clearance page. I clicked on it to find the cutest garments, when I clicked on certain item to purchase it,it navigated away from that page and to the a&f UK homepage.
        Does anyone know how I can go about purchasing the adorable sale items?

        I tried the same thing with the mens clearance items and emailed A & F. Apparently the sale items are only available to the US market

        A&F does not ship international, i live in Romania and i e-mailed them asking if they would send clothes here and they said definately no, they do not ship international and i should visit a actual store…so maybe somebody can tell me a internet site of a store that will ship me the items

        A&F store in the US is quite cheap! But tey couldn’t send me my stuff internationally; there are some locations that they cant send to! But my room mates suggested using a parcel forwarding co called Shipito. I had my a&f stuff sent to their warehouse and then shipito guys sent it to me. I found them extremely cheap plus the brighter side I had my a&f hoody waiting for me :)
