TheMoodieReport.com: "British luxury leathergoods company Mulberry is the first fashion house to sign for a space in BAA Retail's Terminal Five, London Heathrow Airport’s new terminal building which is due to open in March 2008.

The Mulberry shop will be the brand’s third stand-alone airport store, joining existing outlets in Heathrow T1 and T4.

The 600sq ft space in T5 will mark the first of a new design development, the company said. The unique environment has been created to house the brand’s men’s and women’s accessories, luggage and small leather collections.

As part of the innovative store design, bags will hang from branches of climbing iron vines which appear to grow up and across the ceiling.

BAA Retail Managing Director Colin Hargrave said: “We are delighted to welcome Mulberry to Terminal Five. Not only is Mulberry a highly respected British brand but it is synonymous with quality and luxury. Airport shopping has reached new heights over the years and consumers have increasingly come to expect high levels of service and a high quality experience. Mulberry will rise to this challenge and ensure that every traveller enjoys a unique and wonderful store experience.' "
