About Us

Hobbs opened its first store in Hampstead in 1981 and is one of the most successful names on the high street with over one hundred branches throughout the United Kingdom and Ireland.

The company’s success is highly recognised by other retailers and has led us to win industry-coveted awards. 

The company represents a quintessentially English look with a contemporary twist. Each season’s collection places strong emphasis on design, quality and value. Headed by Creative Director Sandy Verdon, the design team takes inspiration from current and past themes and through this process an individual, stylish and timeless collection is produced.

Hobbs is unique in the British fashion market, offering a complete wardrobe to the customer where the garments, shoes and accessories form the perfect complement to one another.

With a highly sophisticated staff training programme, our aim to provide excellent customer service is also the key to our success. Due to this fact, it is not surprising that more than 80% of our customers are repeat buyers.

Whilst Hobbs extends its network of new stores in the UK and Ireland, it is also looking beyond the continent with planned openings in the Middle East, Far East and America in the next few years.
