After opening its Singapore store last autumn COS are continuing to expand in Asia, with a location in the South Korean capital Seoul set to arrive in the spring.

First launched in the UK in 2007, COS has since grown across Europe, Asia and the Middle East. The brand has recently appeared in the United States with a pop-up location at Opening Ceremony, set to be followed by a full store later in the year.

The South Korean store will be located in the upmarket Jamsil Lotte shopping mall, in the center of the capital.

"We are looking forward to the launch of COS in South Korea as it is an integral part of our expansion in Asia," said COS boss Marie Honda.

"Seoul is a vibrant, intercontinental city and we feel Jamsil Lotte World Mall is the ideal location for our first store."
