The first collection of ‘Designers at Debenhams’ launches on October 9

The online department store said its ‘Designers at Debenhams’ initiative, which first launched in 1993 and aims to make luxury fashion more affordable, has been “reimagined for a new generation”.

Its first collection, launching on October 9, includes technicolour oversized coats, sequin slip dresses “in fluid 90s-inspired silhouettes” and “psychedelic printed” jersey dresses.

Asish has brought his “signature maximalism” to the collection to deliver pieces “that are equal parts statement-making and wearable”.

Debenhams Group chief executive Dan Finely said: “Designers at Debenhams was more than a range, it was a retail movement.

“It broke down barriers between luxury and the high street and created a blueprint the industry still follows today. Bringing it back isn’t just about nostalgia, it’s about taking the DNA that made it iconic and re-engineering it for how people shop, live, and dress now.

“Relaunching with Ashish, a designer renowned for his unapologetic glamour, wit, and creativity, sets the perfect tone for this bold new era,” he added.
