London-based fashion designer Judy Wu, who showed her autumn/winter 2016 collection as part of Fashion Scout at the latest London Fashion Week, is opening her first London boutique.

The pop-up will be located in Connaught Village in the Hyde Park Estate, close to Marble Arch and Paddington in London. It will be open from March 14 to April 10 and sell Wu's SS16 collection, which features fabrics including textured Italian tweeds, sensual silks and ultra light bamboo.

Wu's clothes have an emphasis on luxurious urban chic style and she's received critical acclaim from Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Cosmopolitan. She graduated from Central St Martins in 2009 and launched her own label in 2013. Her designs are currently sold in concept stores in London, Riyadh and Shanghai, as well as online.

Joanna Love from the Church Commissioners, said: “We are really excited to welcome Judy Wu to the Village to be the latest addition to our growing independent fashion line-up."

“Judy Wu follows on from the successful launches of The Place London with Simon Burstein of Browns fame, Lucy Choi London and Kokoro. Through our tenant strategy we are building something special at the heart of the Hyde Park Estate with leading independent brands with unique offers in the fashion, design and food and beverage sectors.”
