Accessorise was launched in 1984, opening in the Piazza, an old fruit and vegetable market in Covent, Garden London. Having made its mark as a one-stop for vibrant and fashion-forward accessories across all categories, the first Accessorize was quickly followed by stores in London's Carnaby Street, Norwich and Manchester. Building on its home-grown success today, it is in over 56 markets with over 900 stores worldwide.
