London for shoppers

A den for stylish Londoners, Mayfair-based Wolf & Badger combines independent brands with its own designs and a line of unique fragrances. In the basement, a gallery houses all sorts of performances (music gigs, food and art expos) that add to the edgy feel of this trendy location.

Recently moved from Mayfair to a new store in South West London, Dover Street Market offers an eclectic, well-edited range of designer clothes. Head to this beautiful shop to purchase stunning accessories that you’re unlikely to find anywhere else.

With one shop in central London and another one in Dalston, Beyond Retro is one of locals’ favourite vintage, yet affordable, stores. To carefully rifle through each of the many racks of clothing is the best way to get your hands on extraordinary pieces you’ll want to show off when you’re back home.

Nestled in the beautiful borough of Islington, Aria welcomes locals and travelers in its interior design kingdom. The shop sells as much vintage furniture as it does contemporary pieces. A perfect place to seek creative inspiration for your home, it has been delivering the best in homeware for over two decades.

Fashion agency head honcho Kyle Robinson is behind this new address – a jungly, light-flooded café and shop, set in a former pipe factory. Pieces run from plants and prints to Robinson’s clothes lines: covetable sweatshirts from être cécile, and Herculie’s cool unisex essentials.
