Arriving on the Great British High Street in 1964, Topshop became a true fashion staple. Buying from the brand was a teenage rite of passage, and tourists flocked to its 90,000-square-foot flagship in London. By the mid-2000s, the brand was seriously buzzing. Everyone from Kate Moss to Beyoncé collaborated on collections, and its London Fashion Week show drew in serious It girls, such as Cara Delevingne, Jourdan Dunn, and Kendall Jenner. At one point, we would’ve wished for little more than our wardrobes to be stocked with top-to-toe Topshop. But then it all came crashing down in 2020 when the brand announced it was shutting up shop.
