JAMES, Hampden Clothing's new designer accessory boutique, is open for business!
CHARLIE magazine writes, "you don’t need to be a clothes-and-shoe-loving-nut to know the Hampden name. Whether a regular client or an outsider looking in, you know Hampden as a big deal in its almost six years in the fashion scene—both locally and nationally. The kind of big deal that brings major international designers like Rag + Bone to Charleston for the first time.
But you may not know the brand for accessories.
That’s where JAMES, Hampden’s fun younger brother, comes in.
Over the years, Hampden has established its caliber taste and talent for bringing in great worldly designers, but its high-end clothes were overshadowing the exclusive shoes, handbags and jewelry lines they carry. In Hampden, they were an afterthought. In JAMES, they’re the stars.
'Accessories need their own store because they’re their own experience,' Stacy says. 'It’s about getting comfortable and being surrounded by shoes. Our clothes may not be for everybody, but shoes always fit." Read the full article here.
Pop in to the new shop, conveniently attached to Hampden Clothing at 312 1/2 King Street. Spoil your feet with shoes from Morais, Jerome Dreyfuss, Alexander Wang, and Jerome Rousseau, who’s coming into town for their opening celebration December 6th.
