New Bond Street W1S | Mayfair, Central London
London has never needed a shopping mall because stores have mostly been clustered around famous streets. Bond Street is the city’s top destination for shopaholics, window-shoppers and coolhunters. Most of the luxury brands are lined on both sides of the street running from Oxford Street to Piccadilly. It is a great place to see amazing window displays, to check next season’s styles and to rub shoulders with the rich and famous. Aside from the uber known brands such as Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Burberry, there are other high end brands, specially British, worth a look. Belstaff for leather, Fenwick, for a great small department store, Asprey, for those silver trays, Church’s, for never-out-of-style shoes. The list could go on forever. Make sure you walk along both sides of the street 😉 By the way, most shops offer Tax Free services for overseas tourists.
