You won't want to miss these chic pop-up experiences
Looking for things to do in the capital this month? If another turn about one of the city’s famous galleries, a jaunt down to a cosy pub or a walk around the park aren’t appealing right now, then try indulging in a little retail therapy (with a twist). This month, explore some of the most exciting fashion and beauty pop-ups dotted across London, located in some of buzziest parts of the city. Not sure where to start? We’ve rounded up the top hotspots you can visit now.
This month, Dior has transformed Harrods into a festive wonderland, Hunter has set up a giant boot box on the Covent Garden piazza and The White Company is inviting you to share a kiss under the mistletoe in Chelsea. Here’s what you need to know.
What To Do In London This Weekend
Things To Do In London: Fashion & Beauty Pop-Ups
Dior at Harrods, Knightsbridge
Monsieur Dior was a self-confessed Anglophile, and his relationship with Harrods dates all the way back to 1953, so it’s only fitting that the House has set up shop in Knightsbridge for the festive season. The pop-up brings to life Christian Dior’s Night in Color, a whimsical animated short by French director Sylvain Chomet, with life-size nutcrackers and harlequins welcoming you onto Versailles parquet in a space that nods to Dior’s very first boutique, Colifichets.
Jonathan Anderson’s first Cruise collection for the House takes centre stage (look out for the Dior Bow bag in newspaper print and the Mlle Dior pump, available exclusively here), while gift hunters will find gingerbread-man bag charms, ladybird-dotted candles and baubles illustrated by Chomet himself – plus a service to have ornaments engraved or cards calligraphed for a present that’s a cut above.
When: 6 November – 27 December 2026
Where: Harrods (87–135 Brompton Road, Knightsbridge, London SW1X 7XL)
Dior 2026 Christmas Pop-Up at Harrods
The Hunter Boot Box in Covent Garden
Hunter is marking its 170th year in the most fitting way possible: by inviting us to step inside a giant shoe box. Set on Covent Garden’s East Piazza by the Royal Opera House, the Boot Box is an immersive space dressed in the brand’s signature colours, telling the story of how a humble rubber boot became the ‘welly of choice’ for everyone from dog walkers to Kate Moss (who stars in the brand’s Iconic by Nature campaign, appearing across Covent Garden and Leicester Square for the occasion).
With Christmas fast approaching, it’s also a handy gifting stop – think boots for winter walks, cosy outerwear and festive stocking fillers, with exclusive products, gifts with purchase and monogramming on offer throughout the run.
When: 9 – 25 November 2026
Where: East Piazza, Covent Garden (by the Royal Opera House, London WC2E 9DD)
The White Company Kissing Photo Booth in Chelsea
Calling all romantics: The White Company has installed a Mistletoe Kissing Photo Booth in its Chelsea store to celebrate the launch of its new Mistletoe fragrance collection. The idea is simple – step inside, stand beneath the mistletoe and share a kiss (or a festive moment with friends or family, if you’d rather keep things PG), then take home a complimentary printed photograph as a keepsake. It’s completely free, with no purchase necessary, though we’d be surprised if you left without a Mistletoe candle in hand.
When: Throughout November 2026
Where: The White Company (4 Symons Street, Chelsea, London SW3 2TJ)
Nomasei in Notting Hill
After a successful debut last year, French slow-luxury footwear brand Nomasei is back in London, and this time it’s staying a little longer. Founders Paule Tenaillon and Marine Braquet are hosting a 10-day pop-up in Notting Hill. They’ll be showcasing their seasonal collections alongside an exclusive preview of Spring/Summer 2027, while Paule runs 45-minute Nono Ateliers where you can customise the brand’s cult loafers into a one-of-a-kind pair. From 19–21 November, sustainable label E.L.V. Denim moves in with its upcycled jeans, and on Thursday 19 November, founder Anna Foster, a former fashion editor and stylist, will be on hand to pair her pieces with Nomasei shoes, with drinks and bites to boot (so to speak).
When: 12 – 22 November 2026
Where: 2 Blenheim Crescent, Notting Hill, London W11 2NN
Velvet Desert in Soho
Kuwaiti-Spanish jewellery brand Velvet Desert is making its London debut with a pop-up on D’Arblay Street. Founded by sisters Shaima and Faiza Goodarzi, daughters of a master jeweller who swapped careers in engineering for the family trade, the brand takes its cues from the desert – think golden light, stillness and sculptural dunes – with statement necklaces, ear cuffs, hand chains and body chains that sit somewhere between fine jewellery and accessible luxury. Better still, every piece is waterproof, tarnish-resistant and crafted from recycled metals, so you can wear them in the shower, the sea and everywhere in between.
When: 17 November – 15 December 2026
Where: 19 D’Arblay Street, Soho, London W1F 8ED
Ariat in Shoreditch
Yeehaw, East London. Ariat, the American brand beloved by riders and ranchers alike, is opening its first-ever pop-up shop on Shoreditch High Street this December, bringing a little Western spirit to the city just in time for party season. Expect the brand’s signature cowboy boots alongside denim and Western-inspired pieces, so whether you’ve been eyeing up the cowboy boot trend for a while or you’re after a pair that will last well beyond it, this is the place to try them on for size (and perhaps tick someone off your Christmas list while you’re at it).
When: December 2026
Where: 150 Shoreditch High Street, Shoreditch, London E1 6JB
