Harvey Nichols Fashion Circus – the greatest show in town!
They promised something special, the most fashion fabulous party of the year, and Harvey Nichols didn’t disappoint. The Harvey Nichols fashion Circus was a veritable feast of fashion,fun and festivities that celebrated the stores 10th anniversary in Birmingham.

Stila is back in Britain…and you can find it in Harvey Nichols!
It was the cult cosmetic brand that everyone loved…and then it disappeared! But now Stila is back, and Harvey Nichols, Birmingham is the only department store where you can find it, residing on a sparkling new beauty counter.
