Day-time in Liverpool
Shopping
When fashion bible Tatler re-branded the city ‘Livercool’ they were simply stating what everybody knew –Liverpool does style, and it does it better than anyone else!
Vivienne Westwood recently opened a store to add to the ranks of boutiques that have set up shop in the trendy Cavern Walks. A favourite with Sophie Dahl, the trendy precinct has shops galore selling the latest couture from Milan, Paris and New York.
Further on down Mathew Street are two of Liverpool’s fashion institutions, Wade Smith and Reiss. At Wade Smith, one of the most successful of all Liverpool’s designer stores, you’ll find footballers, pop idols and soap stars all looking for the latest Gucci and Prada. Selling its own products, the Reiss clothing range is so cool you may even need to buy a jumper in summer.
Onto Bold Street, and after you’ve spent your money in Karen Millen, Monsoon and Kookai, you will once again find voguish emporiums.
Halfway up Bold Street you will find the shop known as the Harrods of Liverpool. Jeff’s of Bold Street stocks clothes from top designers including Medici and Joseph Ribkoff.
