Our Paddington Store Is Now Open
Sorry Thanks I Love You Paddington is now open.
Opening at The Olympia at 1 Oxford Street, the long-awaited new development brings together a Sydney sibling for London’s cult Palomar restaurant, a sleek rooftop bar, Australia’s first 25hours hotel replete with Hollywood-inspired cocktail bar and miniature underground cinema, and the second Sorry Thanks I Love You store in Sydney.
Just next door to new specialty café and Lune croissanterie Jacob The Angel, the new Sorry Thanks I Love You store features a carousel of impossible-to-find fashion, design, gourmet food and accessories from around the world. The curation includes work from Comme Des Garçons, Bao Bao Issey Miyake, MM6 Maison Margiela, Mykita, Marni, Diesel, Astier de Villatte – just to name a few. There are also pieces from homegrown heroes Momoko Hatano, Dinosaur Designs and Loco Love, as well as other local small-scale artists and creators.
The offering is spearheaded by newly launched debut Sorry Thanks I Love You apparel collection. Made in Portugal and Japan, the collection incorporates dreamy-soft jersey t-shirts that can be cut to length on site, diamond quilted denim jackets, and parkas that would rile a Gallagher brother.
The new Sorry Thanks I Love You space is a light-filled pocket of calm on Oxford Street – complete with a Yves Klein blue pressed-tin ceiling, plush blue velvet curtains, and custom detailing by award-winning architect Shelley Indyk - herself a Paddington local. And the store location is no accident: Sorry Thanks I Love You’s connection with the area runs deep. Back in 2021, Sorry Thanks I Love You orchestrated a sell-out three-day warehouse party blending fashion, food and wine with Mike Bennie of P&V Wine + Liquor and chef Josh Niland of Saint Peter fame - just next door to the Olympia.
“If Sydney is a city of villages, then Paddington is its capital,” says Sorry Thanks I Love You co-founder Caroline Ball. “The Olympia is the kind of beautiful electric shock that Oxford Street has been waiting for, and we can’t wait to show you.”
