Britain’s luxury shopping spots
For centuries Britain has been at the forefront of high-quality craftsmanship, brilliantly bold designers, and leapt into the lap of luxury within extravagant department stores. Today, its native brands are joined by the finest labels from across the globe, creating luxurious shopping locations that rival the likes of New York, Paris and Milan.
Luxury shopping in every location
Britain’s luxury shopping straddles old and new, from Newcastle’s upmarket Fenwick dating back from 1882, to London’s urban Dover Street Market. Whether you are looking for made-to-measure pair of shoes, cutting edge in luxury streetwear or this season’s drop from an international designer, Britain has it all, and much more.
