Chomping at the bit for Uniqlo to finally open in the Philly market? Rejoice accordingly: The Japanese retailer is getting shoppers psyched for the King of Prussia Mall's soon-to-open Uniqlo store by unveiling a temporary pop-up shop.

Remaining open through Sunday, April 27, the pop-up will give fans of the fast-fashion label a taste of what's to come when Uniqlo opens in its permanent, full-sized spot—two doors down from the pop-up—this May. (An additional Philly-area location will follow this fall when Uniqlo opens in Center City.) You'll find the Uniqlo pop-up in the lower level of The Plaza between Ann Taylor and Vera Bradley.

Update: The pop-up will remain open through April 27, not Thursday, March 27, as we previously reported. The opening of the full-sized KOP Mall Uniqlo will take place on Friday, May 16, 2014.
