British heritage towelling and linen brand Christy has announced it will open a third premium outlet store at Clarks Village this April, following the successful launch of its Ashford location in late 2025.
The 1,059 sq ft Somerset store marks the next step in Christy’s considered retail expansion and will offer the brand’s signature collections across towels, bedlinen, robes, filled bedding, top of bed designs, sleepwear and accessories. Designed to immerse customers in the world of Christy, the new space invites guests to truly “sink into Christy”, experiencing first-hand the craftsmanship and tactility that has been synonymous with the brand for over 175 years.
Clarks Village was selected for its strong alignment with Christy’s premium positioning and lifestyle appeal, attracting shoppers seeking established high-quality heritage brands. Customers will discover exclusive outlet product lines alongside special outlet pricing, with 30-50% discounts across a wide selection of collections. To celebrate the opening, Christy will also offer a gift-with-purchase promotion for launch guests.
Under the leadership of CEO Vanshika Goenka Misra, Christy has entered a new era of strategic growth. In its 175th anniversary year, the company reported 30% turnover growth, expanded into the United States with a New York showroom, and secured new international retail partnerships including Bloomingdale’s. Closer to home, the Clarks Village opening follows the continued success of its outlet locations in Portsmouth and Ashford, further strengthening the brand’s UK retail footprint.
Nancy Loukota, Head of Sales and Retail at Christy, comments: “Clarks Village represents an exciting opportunity for us to build on the strong momentum we’ve seen in our outlet stores. The location is aligned with our brand positioning, attracting customers who truly value the Christy brand and products. We’re looking forward to welcoming new and existing customers into a space where they can fully experience Christy, with exclusive outlet collections and compelling value.
”Marc Myers, Retail Operations Director of Clarks Village, commented: “We are pleased that Christy has chosen Clarks Village as its new location—its third outlet in the UK and its first in Somerset and the South West. With its strong British heritage and reputation for quality, Christy will be a valuable addition for our guests. This is the second new brand to launch at Clarks Village so far this year, following hot on the heels of the new Crocs store, as we strive to keep enhancing guest experience.”
