But for a more leisurely shop away from the chaotic crowds and cut-throat shoppers, St Christopher’s Place offers a slice of laid-back continental charm right in the heart of the capital’s hustle and bustle.
"The Place" as it’s known locally, is tucked between a shoe shop and jewellers on Oxford Street, opposite Bond Street Tube station. This small precinct with its stylish mix of one-off stores and designer outlets is much more intimate than the big modern West One shopping centre on the other side of Oxford Street.
Under Two Flags sells meticulously crafted model toy soldiers and scale figures. The Egyptian House is crammed full of weird and wonderful home decor for the more discerning stylies. Designer wear on show includes Nicole Farhi, Moschino, Dries Van Voten and Martine Sitbone. Antonia Pollack jewellery, Robert Clergerie shoes and Storm fashion accessories ensure you’ll leave the place looking absolutely fabulous from head to toe – provided you’re also prepared to depart with an empty wallet that is.
