A timber floor featuring a diamond formation welcomes guests to the space, while the ornate ceiling features three-dimensional diamond shapes of brushed and polished brass. The fitting rooms have intricate printed wallpaper and are upholstered in regal purple with gold trim, plus the walls feature hanging jewel pendants.
Props referencing the British monarchy are displayed in ornate frames throughout the store, such as red-oak timber-topped tables with gold stylised legs.
