Last fall, the German supermarket brand Lidl opened up a pop-up shop for its new fashion collection. With a growing number of supermarket chains adding clothing sections to their stores, the pop-up shop helped educate consumers about the kinds of trendy pieces they can pick up during their weekly grocery run.

The Lidl pop-up was hosted this past September at a premium high street location in Hamburg. Nestled among shops like [Louis Vuitton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuittons-soho-popup) and [Gucci](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gucci-racing), Lidl sold its new fashion collection 'Esmara.' To differentiate the collection from other clothing brands, the pop-up was peppered with aspiration lifestyle products and [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jacket-potato-jacket)-friendly displays. The supermarket brand even ran its first dedicated television campaign in order to promote products like its cashmere sweaters.

Lidl's pop-up shop demonstrates that even non-fashion brands can use temporary retail as an effective way to engage consumers.
