Two women’s clothing brands opened in Lincoln’s redeveloped £70 million Cornhill Quarter on Tuesday.

Whistles and Hobbs opened on August 4. Phase 8 will welcome its first customers through the doors in the near future, but an exact date has not yet been set.

Phase 8 and Hobbs will be in the same building as the Everyman Cinema, which opens on August 21. Whistles is opposite in the Corn Exchange building.

Whistles opened in Lincoln’s Cornhill on August 4.

The Whistles store will sell womenswear, including footwear and accessories, as well as a complimentary personal shopping service. After hours appointments are also available an hour and a half before or after store opening hours.

Hobbs also offers women’s clothing, shoes and accessories. Phase 8 sells women’s designer clothing including party, occasion, wedding and bridesmaid dresses, workwear and casualwear.

New World Trading Company will open its 29th bar in the 8,000 square foot unit in the third phase of the development when The Botanist opens on August 18.

Healthy Vietnamese street food restaurant Pho had also been signed up to be in the same building.

The Cornhill Quarter is already home to businesses including Cosy Club, Moss Bros, Flying Tiger Copenhagen, Lakeland, 200 Degrees, Neon Sheep, Doughnotts, Seasalt, and Energie Fitness.
