Pune, Oct. 24 After having made its mark at the Lakme India Fashion week, French Connection UK (FCUK), Britian’s hi-fashion brand, is opening a store in Pune at the Central mall. Spread over 956 sq ft, this is its fifth outlet in the country; it has three stores in Mumbai and one in New Delhi.

FCUK will showcase the Autumn-Winter 2007 collection for men and women ranging from Western formals to casuals. Accessories, which offer a mix of traditional bags with oversized holdalls bearing multi pocket compartments, will also be available. The kids range will not be displayed due to lack of space, said Mr Dhiresh Sharma, Business Head, FCUK. The entry level price is about Rs 1,295. The accessories section is expected to double with a wider product range consisting of sunglasses, perfumes, etc.

Mr Dhiresh added that one more outlet in New Delhi and two in Gurgaon are scheduled to be launched, by December.
