Underlines Magazine, organisers of the prestigious Stars Best Shop Awards, are delighted to announce the nominees for the 2026 edition. Celebrating its 18th anniversary, this year’s event will take place on Thursday 5th November 2026 at the Underglobe at Shakespeare’s Globe, bringing together the very best of the lingerie, lounge, swimwear and independent retail community.
The Stars Best Shop Awards would not be possible without the generous support of our principal sponsors: Hyosung Corporation, Wacoal Europe and Panache Lingerie.
We also extend our sincere thanks to our valued supporters: INDX Shows, Anita Since 1886, Soak Wash, Wonderland and BIRA (British Independent Retailers Association).
Each year, the awards recognise outstanding retailers across the UK and Ireland who continue to inspire through exceptional customer experience, innovation, expertise and commitment to the industry.
We offer our warmest congratulations to all of the 2026 nominees. Your dedication and passion continue to elevate standards across the lingerie and swimwear sector, and we look forward to celebrating your achievements together in November.
