New designer childrenswear store, Nuvola, to open in the Metquarter

Queensberry has announced the designer childrenswear store, Nuvola, as its newest retail opening at Liverpool’s Metquarter.

Scheduled to open in June, Nuvola will occupy nearly 3,000 sq ft on the ground floor of the centre and is a one-stop clothing and accessories store specifically designed for kids. The Metquarter store will be the second Nuvola store in Liverpool, following the success of its first location in Kirkby. 

The luxury retailer is the brainchild of two employees of former Metquarter tenant Kids Cavern. Established in 1989, Kids Cavern was one of the UK’s largest independent retailers for kids clothing and accessories and the owners are emulating similar success with Nuvola. 

The store will stock a range of premium brands including DSQUARED2, Burberry, Dolce & Gabbana, Stella McCartney, Missoni, plus many more, and cover everything from timeless classics to on-trend designs. 

Jason Sargent, Leasing & Asset Manager, Queensberry said:

“It’s a testament to Metquarter’s appeal that people who have previously traded a business in the centre are eager to return. We’re delighted to welcome Nuvola and proud to see children’s fashion represented again within our tenant mix.”

Ellie Evans and Alex Toner, Founders of Nuvola said:

“We’re extremely excited to be launching in Metquarter and to be given this fantastic opportunity to expand our business. Kids Cavern had huge success in the centre previously and the other retailers in the centre complement our store perfectly. We cannot wait to welcome our loyal customers to the new store when we open our doors later this month.”

Jennina O’Neill, Metquarter Centre Manager said:

“Nuvola is an established brand with a loyal customer base and local roots. We know that our customers – who return to Metquarter for our mix of boutique fashion, high end brands, creative arts, eclectic food hall and premium experiences – will be delighted with the announcement.” 

Over recent years, Metquarter has transformed from a traditional shopping centre into a dynamic mixed use space. The latest signing will complement Metquarter’s existing mix of entertainment, creative arts and premium fashion retailers, offering synergy and convenience for all occupiers and customers. 

Nuvola joins a host of brands already located at the centre including Cricket, Carvela and Say It With as well as Everyman Cinema and LMA.
