StylingLife Holdings Inc. (head office: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President and Representative Director: Hiroyuki Kitamura) will open a new store for its British lifestyle brand Cath Kidston, “Cath Kidston Tamagawa Takashimaya S.C.,” on Friday, June 5, 2026. The Tamagawa Takashimaya S.C. store is a new gift-focused retail format carrying around 800 items. It will offer an exclusive custom ribbon wrapping service using ribbons printed with initials and the brand logo. In line with the opening, the brand will also begin offering new gift boxes, which will be sold at other directly operated stores as well. For the first three days after opening, a custom ribbon event will be held. Customers who purchase 3,300 yen or more including tax, or buy a 600 yen including tax gift box, can freely wrap products, gift boxes, shopping bags and more using two types of ribbon, including their chosen initial logo ribbon. The event will end once ribbons run out, and during busy periods the store may only hand out ribbons. To commemorate the opening, the store will release two exclusive items: a tote bag and towel handkerchief featuring Scallop Rose artwork. A Stanley bag charm in the Scallop Rose design, available only as a novelty gift, will be presented to customers who spend 15,000 yen or more including tax. The store design is handled by George Creative Company, known for brand design production and also responsible for Cath Kidston’s flagship Omotesando store. The new store is an unprecedented format built around the theme of creating an exciting experience where customers can further enjoy the appeal of Cath Kidston, a brand born in Britain and nurtured together with its customers. Newly introduced areas include the “Cath Kidston GIFT Area” and “Wrapping Bar,” as well as the “Cath Kidston Art Marche,” offering a warm shopping experience where customers can choose gifts while thinking of loved ones and smile through encounters with the brand’s art. The “Cath Kidston GIFT Area” and “Wrapping Bar” allow customers to take their time enjoying seasonal gift selections and the Tamagawa Takashimaya S.C. exclusive custom ribbon wrapping service. As a special store benefit for customers who purchase gift boxes, the store will prepare 10 types of ribbons printed with initials and the brand logo, along with organza and other ribbons. Customers can choose two preferred designs for a heartfelt wrapping finish. At the “Cath Kidston Art Marche,” where the familiar Cath Kidston striped tents line the passageway, visitors can see how the British creative team joyfully creates watercolor artwork. Customers can slowly enjoy lovingly hand-drawn art, the stories behind it, and items featuring the artwork. In this area, even the same artwork can show different expressions and charm depending on the item, and even the same item can feel different depending on how the artwork is cropped, offering a new way to enjoy the brand. Admission may be restricted depending on crowd conditions. Store details: Cath Kidston Tamagawa Takashimaya S.C., opening Friday, June 5, 2026. Address: Tamagawa Takashimaya S.C.
