QWEEN Partners with London-based Global Design Studio Dalziel & Pow to Shape a New Era of Jewellery Retail in India
PRNewswire
Bangalore (Karnataka) [India], January 30: QWEEN,India's first self-discovery, 100% natural experiential luxury jewellery brand, has partnered with Dalziel & Pow, a London-based design and strategy studio. Renowned for its work on future-facing experiential retail formats, Dalziel & Pow has conceptualised and designed QWEEN's upcoming retail stores in Bangalore and Delhi. The partnership marks a significant step in QWEEN's mission to move beyond conventional transactional jewellery retail formats and create spaces that dissolve intimidation, which is the primary enemy in the category, and make it invitational for consumers to walk in and discover for themselves without any pressure or judgement.
Dalziel & Pow is globally recognised for rethinking retail formats where categories need to evolve, rather than simply designing cold functional stores which cater to the needs of the retailer rather than the consumer. Their portfolio spans global retail, fashion, lifestyle, tech, telecom, and culture brands, including Primark, Lululemon, Adidas, Google, EE, O2, Johnnie Walker, Guinness, Twinings, Molton Brown, RW&CO., and more. Dalziel & Pow will work closely with QWEEN to translate the brand's philosophy of building an invitational, experiential retail space where the Qween is in command of her own shopping journey. Spanning 5,000-6,000 sq. ft., QWEEN's stores are envisioned not merely as points of purchase, but as thoughtfully designed environments that evoke feminine pride and a curious sense of exploration.
"The jewellery industry, while celebrated, had settled into a comfortable predictability and remained stuck behind glass counters. And we wanted to change that," said Amit Kumar, CEO & Co-Founder, QWEEN. "We were deliberate in taking the time to find a partner who could truly do justice to QWEEN's ambition. With Dalziel & Pow, there was immediate conviction: our shared belief in how space can shape behaviour, emotion, and choice. Together, we are building discovery-led retail environments that prioritise self-discovery, individuality, and confidence, allowing women to engage with jewellery as a form of self-expression, rather than occasion."
"At Dalziel & Pow, our mission is to rethink categories that have stopped evolving," said Tim Gravelling, Creative Director, Dalziel & Pow. "What drew us to QWEEN was the brand's clarity of purpose and cultural relevance. They wanted to change how the jewellery retail culture was built around intimidation, occasion, and inherited rules rather than personal choice. That clarity allowed us to reframe the category around how women actually want to explore, decide, and engage today. The result is a retail format that treats jewellery as an extension of identity, not a mere marker of occasion."
