Topshop mania continued this morning with the megastore's official opening in New York's Soho district. With the sun shining down on Broadway, literally hundreds of style-seekers waited in a line that stretched around the block to snap up the coveted duds. We caught up with a cross-section of zealous shoppers to find out about their personal style.


Street Style at TopShop

    Name: Amelia Valentin
    Age: 16
    What are you wearing? "I have Vans shoes. My sweater is from Kohl's. I have no idea were the rest comes from."
    What do you hope to buy? "I'm looking for mostly accessories, but anything!"
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "I really like her modeling, but I don't have a particular moment of hers. I'm just excited to see her today."

    Name: Susanna Liguori (Left)
    Age: 15
    Where are you from? "Los Angeles. I'm visiting family. But I timed it so I could come here!"
    What are you wearing? "I think the boots are Steve Madden. The dress is vintage. My fur vest is from eBay. It was a coat but I just cut the arms off. The jacket is vintage DKNY. And the bracelets are vintage."
    What do you hope to buy? "I'm really excited by the spring dresses and florals. Just something light and easy."
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "I think she pulls everything off. But I love her in fur. Even if it's faux, she just works it. And her in cheetah print!"

    Name: Molly Wurwand (Right)
    Age: 15
    Where are you from? "Los Angeles. We're best friends!"
    What are you wearing? "These are Dr. Martens. They are my mom's from the 80's. The pants are just kind of weird, I don't know. This is a vintage dress. The coat is vintage Dries van Noten from my mom."
    What do you hope to buy? "Actually, I want to get a hat. I've seen a lot of people wearing them and it's inspiring."
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "One time she went to an awards dinner and she was wearing a 1930's dress and it ripped and she just decided to cut off the bottom and make it a mini-dress. I really liked that."

    Name: Shruti Ganguly
    Age: 26
    Where are you from? "I'm Indian, but I grew up in the Middle East in Oman, and I live in Chinatown. I've been in New York for five years."
    How long have you been waiting to get in? "I've been here for a couple of hours."
    What are you wearing? "I have a Lorick coat, a Marc by Marc bag, an Inhabit sweater, shoes from a vintage store in Williamsburg, and the bowtie is from Timo."
    What do you hope to buy? "Anything with sequins and some sparkle. Some nice black evening jackets would be great. I'm excited to use my surprise gift card!"
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "There are too many moments! Definitely some of the early Calvin Klein campaigns."

    Name: Lina Plioplyte
    Age: 25
    Where are you from? "I live in Bushwick Brooklyn."
    What are you wearing? "J. Crew jacket, Urban Outfitters gloves, shoes are by Clarks. A tie by Timo. Everything else is vintage. "
    What do you hope to buy? "I love sequins and anything overdone with crazy colors and prints. I love their leather jackets because they are sequined and awesome."
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "I love her so much. Her early pictures were the best when she wore that see-through bra. And the boots with the little jean shorts and the vests. The way she did it was the best."

    Name: Alexia Decockborne
    Age: 21
    Where are you from? "I'm from Paris, but I live here. I live on 23rd and 1st Ave. Not very far. I've been here for seven years in New York."
    What are you wearing? "The shoes are Minnetonka, the jacket, coat, pants, and scarf are Zara. The bag is Versace and the glasses are Ray-Ban."
    What do you hope to buy? "I saw a dress online and I thought the shoes were really nice. And I'll look for pants, too."
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "I loved the last time she was in W magazine and there were like 10 pictures of her inside."

    Name: Janie Marshall (Left)
    Age: 29
    Where are you from? "I'm from here! We work a couple of blocks away at a design studio. We're playing hooky!"
    What are you wearing? "I'm wearing a vintage jacket, vintage cashmere sweater, Madewell shirt, Express pants, sunglasses are Karen Walker. The jacket is my stepdad's from the 70's. My necklaces are from the flea market, Urban Outfitters, and Juicy Couture."
    What do you hope to buy? "Definitely the accessories. The jewelry in Topshop is insane. I'm going to go jewelry crazy!"
    What is your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "Recently she wore this neutral boyfriend jacket and it was just ridiculous. It was like in a street shot. It was perfect."

    Name: Sophie London (Right)
    Age: 25
    Where are you from? "I'm from New York and live in Brooklyn. I have a fashion blog called DailyBohemia.com"
    What are you wearing? "The dress is by Joie, the fur is Chloe, the boots are Zara, the bag is Gucci. The sunglasses are Free People."
    What do you hope to buy? "Most likely something Kate Moss for Topshop."
    What is your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "That's a tough one. Maybe her Halloween moment when she was dating Pete Doherty when she was wearing this cool cat-eyed mask."

    Age: 20
    Where are you from? "Spain. I'm on Easter vacation. I'm staying in a hostel on the Upper West Side. I'm writing for CyanMag.com in Spain."
    What are they wearing? "I'm wearing a Zara hat, jacket, and scarf. The jeans and sweater are from Urban Outfitters."
    What do you hope to buy? "Kate Moss's brand is quite quirky. I like it. I'll probably look for her dresses and jeans."
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "I love what she wore on one of her birthdays-the Chanel stars jacket and pants."

    Name: Christina Rutherford
    Age: 23
    Where are you from? "Bedford Hills, NY, which is in Westchester County. I took the train. I got here at like 9:30am, but I got up at a quarter to 7, got on the train at 8:11am and got here a quarter after 9."
    What are you wearing? "My shoes are by Guess, my jeans are Bull Dog for Urban Outfitters. My top is Humanoid. My jacket is Forever 21 and the scarf is something random."
    What do you hope to buy? "Hopefully something from the Preen or Jonathan Saunders lines."
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "I absolutely love her. I think it was her 34th birthday party and she was wearing this Chanel jumpsuit with the stars and she had the gold star painted on her face. I absolutely loved that!"

    Name: Natalie Weiss
    Age: 20
    Where are you from? "I'm from Cologne, Germany. I write for the fashion blog lesmads.de. I've been here for two weeks visiting friends and staying on the Lower East Side, but this is definitely my highlight."
    What are you wearing? "I don't even know!"
    What do you hope to buy? "I don't know what exactly. I always find something at Topshop in London, so I know I'm going to find something here. I'll probably look for skirts and tights and bags."
    What's your favorite Kate Moss style moment? "It's difficult. But probably three years ago looking at her street style was always a pleasure. She's still cool, but two or three years ago she was great."
