About Mayfair > Shopping in Mayfair

Mayfair is one of the most exclusive shopping destinations in the World, with an array of top designer boutiques adorning its wide streets.

Bond Street

Fashion shopping largely centers around New Bond Street and Old Bond Street (usually just referred to together as Bond Street for short). Find out more about Bond Street in Mayfair.

Shopping Arcades

Mayfair is home to two covered shopping areas - the Royal Arcade and the Burlington Arcade. These are both elegant retail spaces where products of class and distinction can be purchased.

Savile Row

Savile Row is renowned around the world as being the home of bespoke tailoring for men. Famous tailors based in Savile Row include Hardy Amies, Ozwald Boateng, Gieves & Hawkes and Alexandre of London. Find out more about Savile Row

Abercrombie and Fitch

New in 2007, this uber-trendy store is a place for the super good looking. When I went, a topless male model stood in the door way and the shop was more like a nightclub with a distinct lack of lighting and loud music blasting. Certainly a unique retail experience.

Fortnum and Mason

Fortnum and Mason – which strictly speaking is on the St James' side of Mayfair’s southern perimeter - was established in 1707 by William Fortnum and Hugh Mason, which makes it 300 years old this year (2007). It is primarily known as the home of upmarket food and drink, and its famous tea shop but other products are available on other floors. It’s worth using the lifts and the stairs if possible as both are hugely attractive.
