Engelhorn

Engelhorn is a family-owned fashion house that began in Mannheim in 1890 and is still based there. It now runs seven stores, most of them in Mannheim, and stocks more than 950 brands across fashion, sports and lingerie. Think of it as a proper department store with a serious designer floor.

The edit is broad but well judged. On the luxury and designer side you'll find 'S Max Mara, Akris and Akris Punto, Anine Bing and Dorothee Schumacher, with AG for denim and CG - CLUB of GENTS for tailoring. Sport is just as strong, with Energetics, Erima, Eisbär and Dachstein, plus bikes from Brompton, Bergamont and Diamant. Chantelle and Eres cover lingerie and swim.
