Topshop bring out 300 new designs every week there prices ranges are made to be affordable to everyone. They have a basic collection which is simple but cheap, a unique collection which is slightly more expensive but worn by famous people and featured on catwalks. The store is also full of very fashionable products that are sold at very cheap prices.

This is a fantastic way of shopping and increasing sales as the personal shopper emails the customer with new styles and clothing that the customer likes and may want to buy.
