“The pop-up store is perfect for the times,” said Convenience Store owner Andrew Ibi. “There’s no lease to negotiate, no rent to pay, and not a lot of stock to clear at the end.” Not that Ibi, the dreadlocked “fashion-mista,” needs to worry about clearing merch: His store, which is normally located in Notting Hill but has now assumed pop-up form at the sleek Covent Garden Hotel in St. Martins Lane, has that elusive ka-ching factor. Anyone for a Rick Owens backless jumpsuit or a Felder-Felder leather harness dress that would make even a dominatrix blush?
