An Exciting Milestone for Charlies as We Celebrate Our Drapers Awards Shortlisting
We have some very exciting news. Charlies has been shortlisted for Best Independent Department Store at the Drapers Awards 2026.
Charlies is growing fast, and our clothing and footwear departments have been a key part of that. Combined sales grew 21% in the financial year to July 2026. That momentum has carried into this year, with clothing and footwear sales online currently up 77% year on year.
None of this would be possible without the hard work and dedication of our colleagues, and the loyal customers who keep coming back to us.
We're proud to be shortlisted alongside so many other brilliant brands. We have our fingers tightly crossed for the big night in November.
