FORTNUM & MASON
|
  |
| For three centuries Fortnum's has been committed to bringing the world's best food to Piccadilly – often from continents away. Fresh food, though, has always come from as close to these Isles as possible. Respecting this hemisphere's seasons has always seemed obvious to us: we've never really wavered from the path.
We take extraordinary care over the origins of everything we sell. Every sprout, lobster, truckle and rib comes direct from suppliers we know intimately rather than from markets. If we’re not to uphold our own standards, who is?read more »

Liberty
|
|
| Since it opened in 1875, Liberty has captured the hearts of shoppers around the world and even spawned its own line in fabrics, which found fame and popularity with designers like Mary Quant and Jean Muir in the 1960s. Housed in a striking timber-framed building on Regent Street, Liberty's dedication to innovative design and Eastern influences reflects its founder's fascination with Japan following the International Exhibition of 1862. Not content with merely following trends, Liberty regularly showcases and sponsors new designers. Peruse designer womenswear, ogle the arts and crafts antiques or savour the tantalising colours and textures of numerous fabrics.read more »
