With London Fashion Week in full swing at Somerset House in Central London my thoughts turn to haute couture shopping. Glittering names such as Chanel, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Giorgio Armani, Roberto Cavalli, Versace, Yves Saint Laurent and many others from the world of high fashion can all be found in one London thoroughfare – Sloane Street in Knightsbridge.
A shopper’s paradise Sloane Street even has its own website which lists over 60 stores, no fewer than five outstanding hotels, and half a dozen restaurants & bars (click here).
If you prefer to do your shopping under one roof then Sloane Street has its own Department Store too – Harvey Nicholls – where you can browse through 8 floors of fashion collections for women and men, fashion accessories and beauty products. If all this makes you peckish then on the 5th floor can be found a Restaurant, Café, Terrace and Bar; as well as a food court and wine shop. (More info here).
Still not enough for your “Shop ‘til you Drop” mission – well there’s another famous Department Store just down the road – it’s called Harrods.
To get there by London Underground take the Piccadilly Line to Knightsbridge or by bus take any of the numbers 9, 10, 14, 19, 22, 52, 74, 137, 414, 452, C1.
