From humble beginnings, Cotton On has come a long way since 1991, the year it was established. Back then, the company was a small, family-run business with a big dream: to create a line of layered basics and on-trend fashion pieces that would satisfy shoppers’ fetish for cool clothing at unbeatable prices. Today, the label has quickly evolved into a bona-fide fashion destination around the world—Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, United States, United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Brazil, and now the Philippines.
With over 950 stores worldwide, Cotton On offers relaxed fashion for style-savvy men and women from their desk to the dance floor. The brand features the latest runway looks at unbeatable prices for men and women. The women’s line has a mix of dresses, tops, and skirts in the latest fabrics, prints, and colors. For the men’s line, Cotton On offers essentials with a wide range of quality shirts, tanks, and long-sleeved tops in a palette of black, white, and charcoal plus splashes of the season’s hottest colors. Also available in the Philippines is Cotton on Body which has a wide selection of intimates, sleepwear, and active wear. Another is Rubi, Cotton On’s line of shoes.
