Extraordinary At Browns

At Browns, you can always rely on us to take things up a notch, and the festive season is no exception. From the 20th November onwards, you’ll find an array of unique installations, experiences and events at Browns East and Browns South Molton Street, designed to turn ordinary holiday cheer into an Extraordinary festive extravaganza.

With Swarovski encrusted crystal creations, a forest designed specifically for relaxation and even some pet portraiture on the schedule, our festive programme is bringing you holiday spirit with an Extraordinary Browns twist. Read on to find out more and sign up for some of our exclusive Extraordinary experiences…

Inspired by Sara Shakeel’s glittering marijuana artworks, this festive season we’ve transformed the entrance of Browns East into an herbal holiday extravaganza. Whether you’re looking to chill out this year or perhaps take a trip somewhere new, our dope decorations will have you easing into the festive fun in no time…

The festive season is all about indulgence, so we’re treating you to the most indulgent and Extraordinary hot chocolates courtesy of Filipino dessert specialists Mamasons Dirty Ice Cream. Take a break from shopping for gifts (and yourself…) and visit Browns East to sample one of their Extraordinary hot chocolates. Available at weekends only until 22nd December, complimentary hot chocolates will be available on a first come, first served basis, so head down early to avoid disappointment!

Want to spoil your four-legged friend this year? We’re giving your furry friends the chance to enjoy the luxurious VIP treatment with our exclusive Pet Palace. To coincide with the launch of pet clothing from the likes of Petements and Burberry at Browns, the Pet Palace will be replete with pink faux fur walls and Sara Shakeel artwork. Sit back, relax and admire the lavish surroundings, whilst your pet samples the purrfect edit from our brand new pet collections.

Want to commemorate the moment? They say a picture speaks a thousand words, so Virginie from the E5 Dog Photography team will be on hand from 12pm - 4pm at weekends to capture your beloved companion in all their finery. What’s more, with every booking, Butternut Box will donate a week's worth of dog food to the Wild at Heart Foundation charity supporting dog rescue and adoption.

Photography bookings are essential so reserve your spot via the link below. Sessions are priced at £65 and you'll receive two digital images from the shoot.

From the 21st November, Browns South Molton Street will transform its windows into a twinkling spectacle like none other with the help of artist Sara Shakeel in partnership with Swarovski Professionals. Embellished with Swarovski crystals, five sparkling installations will take over the windows, each dedicated to a piece of Sara’s glittering artwork. Spoiler alert: think rhinestone French fries, goldfish and some truly eggstraordinary details. Lending new meaning to the expression “a feast for the eyes” Sara Shakeel's iconic The Great Supper sculpture will also be on loan from NOW Gallery throughout the holiday season for customers to enjoy.

Midnight feast? More like midnight shopping! On the 18th and 19th of December, Browns South Molton Street will be extending its opening hours from 10am until midnight, giving you the chance to make all those last-minute festive purchases. What’s more, on these days we’ll also be donating 10% of all purchase values to the mental health charity Mind.

If the end of the year has you in search of some spiritual healing, conscious wellness brand She’s Lost Control will be in-store to offer customers their expert guidance. Giving you the opportunity to reflect on the past year and set your intentions for the one ahead, they’ll be offering complimentary crystal readings with purchase. 

Your pets are also in for an extra-special treat, as Virginie from E5 Dog Photography will be present to offer complimentary pet portraits with purchase. 

They say it’s what’s on the inside that counts, but to ensure your gifts look as good under the tree as they do inside, we’ll be offering complimentary gift wrap and delivery for all purchases over £500.
