Aimed at those who want out-of-office wear that in no way compromises quality or style, the collection includes indulgent 100% cashmere sweaters and hand-treated leather wear, for example a stunning leather jacket inspired by the 1970\u2019s drivers&#8217; race suits is proving to be amongst the most popular items from the collection of relaxed luxury apparel.<\/p>\n<p>The development of the LOTUS ORIGINALS retail concept has been rapid, upon its launch in September 2010 the dedicated website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lotusoriginals.com\">www.lotusoriginals.com<\/a> was the only retail outlet for the collection. The London flagship store is the next step in a fully integrated, international retail strategy for non-car Lotus products.<\/p>\n<p>Maurizio Parlato, Commercial &amp; Marketing Director for Group Lotus said, \u201cWe are delighted to secure this iconic location, it\u2019s the result of many months of careful planning and negotiations \u2013 the completion of this milestone really demonstrates the success of the LOTUS ORIGINALS offering and the potential we have for the future. This is the cornerstone of our global retail strategy and we have lots to look forward to.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lotus have posted an update on progress on the Lotus Originals store set to open on London&#8217;s famous Regent Street.
