Everytime I have friends from India in London and they ask for clothing stores to shop in, I send them a list. Its strange this list has not made it to the blog. About time.
Keep this handy.
Its a very basic but detailed list of brick and mortar clothing stores for women to shop in London – none of these are online only stores. Each of these stores mentioned here has atleast one physical store. These are mostly brand and easy access fashion. To the most extent no independent stores, boutiques or designer clothing. I will probably do a separate list for that. Also this is only women’s clothing – again, I will probably do a separate list for accessories, lingerie, makeup, men’s clothing, etc.
