Cardiff’s New Shopping Destination: CO.LAB Brings Fashion, Fun, and More to St. David’s This Autumn

Get ready, Cardiff: CO.LAB is about to transform your shopping experience this autumn. Now open at St. David’s Dewi Sant, CO.LAB is the city’s newest pop-up destination, bringing the best online fashion, beauty, and lifestyle brands right to the heart of the city. Housed in the former Monsoon space, this vibrant shopping hub will feature over 80 top brands and more than 15 complimentary events and experiences you won’t want to miss.

Step into CO.LAB and explore a realm of fashion with brands like Kina and Tam, where bold patterns, vibrant hues, and ethical craftsmanship blend to create standout looks. Discover Oceanus, a brand on a mission to redefine swimwear and empower women. Founded by Hannah Attalah, Oceanus merges the glamour of 80s evening wear with functional swimwear, creating pieces designed to turn heads. Each piece exudes confidence through unique textures and is hand-embroidered with Swarovski crystals, all while being made from recycled, eco-friendly materials.

CO.LAB offers more than just shopping. With its luxury styling lounge, you can book personal appointments with in-house stylists and elevate your wardrobe with expert advice. For those seeking a moment of self-care, look forward to rejuvenating wellness events.
