SPYING OUT STYLE This season Sunspel has dedicated a special collection to Ian Fleming, author of the classic James Bond spy series. The Brit was a fan of the brand’s Sea Island cotton, often wearing it during writing trips at his holiday home in Jamaica. Drawing inspiration from the man himself and his creation, the polo shirts, jumpers and T-shirts have a retro 1950s feel, and come in a cool palette of white, sky blue and navy. Look out for the Sea Island cotton version of the brand’s Riviera polo shirt, which actor Daniel Craig wore in the 2006 film Casino Royal. rre Sunspel, 7 Redchurch Street, London E2 7DJ, +44 (0)20 7739 9729, sunspel.com

This season Carpisa presents a collection of totes, backpacks, clutches and purses in a wide choice of colours from black to shimmering metallics. The Italian brand is known for its attention to detail and its latest offerings are finished with tassels, chains and contrast linings. We particularly like this medium crossbody bag in ochre (£39.95) from the Gabes by Carpisa line. Look out for the impressive luggage, including hard-shell cases or fabric trolleys in different sizes and colourways. grc Carpisa, 285 Oxford Street, London W1C 2DW, +44 (0)20 7493 1515, carpisa.it

For men, the brand has embraced lightweight fabrics and summery colours – think reds, stone marls and bright pinks with shots of indigo – to create the perfect warm-weather wardrobe. The children’s range has been inspired by trips to the seaside; a palette of pastel shades echoes the colours of ice cream, while subtle accents of neon add a fun pop of colour. next.co.uk

‘T
he Great British High Street’ is a phrase that has come into use in recent years to represent the UK’s booming fast-fashion industry. Jumpers for £19.99, £59 coats and a fabulous pair of on-trend shoes that will set you back only £35 are par for the course when exploring London’s Oxford Street.

in Wimbledon Village. As well as its original footwear offering, the brand now produces a full ready-to-wear line, handbags and other accessories and has more than 80 UK stores and stockists in 10 countries. Its British heritage is at the heart of the brand, with design inspiration often coming from the British social season and traditional fabrics. No wonder it’s one of the Duchess of Cambridge’s go-to brands for everything from bias-cut shift dresses to nude court heels. However, it’s not just celebrity fans that give the brand gravitas. A combination of wearable day dresses with just a hint of trend-led accents and high-quality footwear that doesn’t look a million miles away from the Bond Street heavy hitters makes it a name to rely upon.

Nestled amid the global high-street names in the capital are a number of British mid-market retailers who are doing things a little differently. Offering quality fabrics, thoughtful design and a reasonable price point, these brands are making a stand for cost-per-wear pieces that will revolutionise your wardrobe as well as your pocket. Founded in 1990 by Linda Kristin Bennett as ‘something in-between the designer footwear you find on Bond Street and those on the high street’, LK Bennett has come a long way from its first store

an eye out this season for LK Bennett’s lightweight spring coats, wide-leg trousers and elegant cross-body bags, perfect for the everyday and beyond. Another brand giving everyday basics a mid-market makeover is Reiss. What began as a suit shop for men in the early 70s became the businesswoman’s clothes shop of choice in the early 2000s. Since the appointment of Ermenegildo Zegna alumnus James Spreckley as creative director in 2013, the brand now offers so much more than boardroom chic. A renewed focus on what it refers to as ‘modern femininity’ for women, alongside an increased use of premium fabrics such as leather and suede, has given Reiss some serious style credentials.

wear is a sumptuous offering of easy-to-wear dresses, relaxed suiting and oversized knitwear in beautiful earthy shades. And while the menswear keeps tailoring at its core, the days of the pure business suit are long gone, replaced this season by pastel colours and soft linens. Modern minimalism lies at the heart of both the men’s and women’s collections. A soft palette of muted tones makes for wardrobe staples that don’t scream ‘look at me’ but whisper ‘style’ with a gentle elegance. Highlights come in the form of evening dresses that fit just so and understated leather handbags with characteristically fair price tags. Premium fabrics are what have drawn Reiss to the attention of the Above (both): Reiss spring/summer 2018
fashion crowd over the past 10 years, and the same can most certainly be said of Whistles. Taken over by Jane Shepherdson, Topshop’s former brand director, in 2008, Whistles went from small-time label to household name in her eight years as CEO. Since Shepherdson’s departure in 2016, the brand shows no sign of slowing down, offering a broader and more fashion-conscious collection than ever before. The spring/summer 2018 offering is crowned by the Limited Edition range, a selection of premium pieces that could have been plucked from the catwalks of Milan, yet were actually designed in a studio in north-west London.

standout blue silk wrap dress would be a welcome addition to any wardrobe, along with the on-trend woven accessories. The excellent fabrics and meticulous design of these items show the wisdom of parting with that bit more than for a high-street version but rather less than for something by a leading designer. Not quite the high street, not too far from designer, the British mid-market is making a case for conscious, fashionable dressing at a reasonable price point. With a plethora of options to suit tastes from conservative to daring, from wedding outfits to businesswear and plenty of day-to-day hero pieces, these are certainly brands worth taking notice of Above (all): Whistles spring/summer 2018

TABLE TALK
For years London has been the epicentre of the great British street-food revival. From its bustling traditional food markets (Borough, Broadway and Berwick being noteworthy highlights) to its outdoor, pop-up culinary extravaganzas (Dinerama in the Shoreditch area is a particular delight), the city has seen all manner of gastronomic delights draw the focus of food lovers away from bricks-and-mortar establishments. But what comes after street-food success? Bricksand-mortar, it seems. The latest trend to take over London’s dining scene is street food. Whether it’s a cheeseobsessed eatery that began life as a food truck, a dumpling restaurant that evolved from one of London’s most popular stalls or a Japanese street-food phenomenon that has been such a success it has opened a second outlet in London, we’ve selected three of the best restaurants to have taken their delicious dishes from street to seat. globalblue.com

Some of London’s coolest new restaurants started life on the streets, as Ruairidh Pritchard discovers
THE CHEESE BAR The Cheese Truck serves some of the best grilled cheese sandwiches around, and its non-mobile spinoff, The Cheese Bar, is just as unmissable. The menu is surprisingly expansive for an establishment focused on a single ingredient sourced mainly from small, artisanal suppliers. Typical dishes include Marmite Malakoff, a deep-fried cheese ball served with romesco sauce; blue-cheese raclette served with salt beef; and, of course, a range of grilled cheese sandwiches. For the finale, try the Devon blue ice cream with poached pear and honeycomb or opt for the cheeseboard of the week. The Cheese Bar, 93/94 Camden Stables, London NW1 8AH, thecheesebar.com

KANADA-YA
UGLY DUMPLING
Ramen is the street food of Asia, and Kanada-Ya has become one of Japan’s most popular ramen bars since it opened in 2008. It recently followed up its successful launch in London in 2014 with a second branch, just off Piccadilly. The menu includes mouth-watering truffle ramen, made with KanadaYa’s celebrated pork-bone broth, chashu pork collar, spring onions, porcini truffle paste and white truffle oil, alongside delicious small plates including seared chashu pork belly and Japanese fried chicken. Visit to discover a true taste of Asian street food in the UK capital. Kanada-Ya, 3 Panton Street, London SW1Y 4DL, +44 (0)20 7930 3511, kanada-ya.com
Another of London’s streetfood success stories, The Ugly Dumplings stall serves its fried and steamed dumplings at some of the capital’s best food markets, and last summer it found a permanent home in Soho. Using fresh, seasonal British ingredients to create all manner of Asian fusion flavours, the Ugly Dumpling menu features ‘street food classics’, including pork belly, aromatic duck and satay chicken, alongside ‘new favourites’ such as cheeseburger, mushroom and truffle, and miso cod. There’s even a selection of sweet dumplings, with pecan pie, apple pie or blueberry fillings. Ugly Dumpling, 1 Newburgh Street, London W1F 7RB, +44 (0)20 7287 5536, uglydumpling.co.uk

MAÎTRE CHOUX Founded by top pastry chef Joakim Prat in 2015, Maître Choux was the first patisserie in London devoted – as its name suggests – to choux pastries. The brand has since opened a second branch on Soho’s Dean Street, offering visitors a plethora of exquisite creations, including cream-filled and extravagant decorated éclairs, light-as-afeather chouquettes – hollow pastry balls topped with pearl sugar – and round choux buns filled with deliciously flavoured creams and topped with chocolate.

Bennett成 为了一 个 值得 信 赖 的品 牌。新季 来临，您不妨留意 该品牌 的 轻 盈 春 季外 套、阔腿裤 和优 雅 的 斜 挎 包，这 些 都 是日常 穿 着及其他 场 合 的完 美 选 择。 Reiss是 另一家把日常基 本款 式 做 出高档感 的中 端品牌。70年 代 早 期 初 创时 Reiss还 只是 一家男士西 装商 店，而 到了 21世 纪 初已然 成 为了商业 女 性 的 首选 服 装 店。该品牌自 2013年 启用 Ermenegildo Zegna的 前设 计 师 James Spreckley出任 创意 总监以 来，如 今的 设 计已 远 不止于办 公室 风 尚。Reiss专注于重 新 演绎“ 现代 女 性 魅力 ”，并增 加皮革 和 绒面 革等 优 质 面 料 的使 用，从而为品牌 赢得了更 热 烈的时尚追 捧。 2018年春夏季 女 装 奢 华而 精 美， 容易穿 搭的连 衣 裙、风 格 休闲的西 装 和 超 大 号 的针 织衫 均以优 雅 的大 地 色 彩为 基调。男装 依旧主 打合身剪 裁 的西 装，但 纯商业西 装 的时代 早已 过 去，本 季 取而代 之 的 是淡 雅 的色 彩 与 质 地 柔 和的亚 麻 布。男女 装系列的 设 计 均围绕 着 现代 极简主义 展 开。衣 橱 基 本款 式 搭上 温 柔 和 缓 的配色，避 免 了直 如高 呼 “快 看 我”一 般 的唐突感， 转用温文 尔 雅 的 姿 态将 “风 格”娓 娓 道 来。系列亮 点当属完 美 贴 合身 线 的 晚 礼 服裙与低 调 含 蓄的皮革手 袋，二 者的 标价 均 相当合 理。 在 过去十 年中，是 优 质 的面 料 让 Reiss吸引了时尚人 群 的关注；同 样 的话用在 Whistles这 里也恰如其 分。2008年，Topshop前品牌总监 Jane Shepherdson接 管了 Whistles； 在 她 出任 CEO的八年里，Whistles从 默 默 无闻 之 辈成 为了家 喻户晓 的名 牌。2016年，Shepherdson离职，但 该品牌 并 没有表 露出任 何走下坡 路 的迹 象，其系列作品反而比 从前品类 更丰富、更紧贴 时尚潮 流。 为品牌 2018年春夏季系列 画龙 点 睛 的 是 Limited Edition— — 这一系

РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД
28: HEART OF CLASS ЗОЛОТАЯ СЕРЕДИНА Люсинда Тернер рассказывает о британских брендах среднего ценового сегмента, которые успешно заняли позицию между звездными дизайнерами и масс-маркетом Фраза «The Great British High Street» («Великая британская доступность») вошла в обиход в последние годы и очень точно характеризует расцвет британской быстрой моды. Джемперы за £19.99, пальто за £59 и модная пара обуви всего за £35 – все это в порядке вещей на Оксфорд-Стрит. Но что происходит, когда отступает радость от масс-маркета? Куда вы пойдете за вещами, которые выдержат проверку временем, но не разорят вас? По соседству с мировыми доступными марками расположились британские бренды среднего сегмента, которые немного иначе ведут дела и позиционируют себя. Они предлагают качественные ткани, продуманный дизайн и разумную ценовую политику. Поэтому соотношение стоимости и длительности использования их вещей способно полностью преобразовать и гардероб, и расходы на него.

В 1990 году Линда Кристин Беннетт создала бренд LK Bennett, чтобы заполнить нишу «между дизайнерской обувью, которую можно найти на Бонд-Стрит, и массовым рынком». Она проделала большой путь, начав с первого магазина в кварталах Wimbledon Village. Теперь же, помимо обуви, компания выпускает полную коллекцию готовой одежды, сумки и аксессуары, и у нее более 80 собственных магазинов и посредников в Великобритании и 10 странах. В основе стиля LK Bennett лежит британское наследие: за коллекциями часто стоит светский календарь или традиционные ткани. Неудивительно, что герцогиня Кембриджская полюбила покупать здесь самые разные вещи – от платьев с декольте до бежевых туфель-лодочек. Авторитет бренда, однако, формируют не только знаменитые постоянные клиенты. В значительной степени на это работают удобные дневные платья и качественная обувь, которая не уступает дизайнерским предложениям с Бонд-Стрит. В новой коллекции LK Bennett особое внимание стоит уделить пальто, свободным брюкам и элегантным сумкам через плечо – идеальный комплект для повседневного использования и особых случаев. Бренд Reiss также создает повседневные базовые вещи в среднем ценовом сегменте. Он начинал в 1970-е с мужских костюмов, а в 2000-е стал globalblue.ru
востребованным магазином женской деловой одежды. Еще один поворот случился в 2013 году, когда креативным директором марки стал Джеймс Спрекли, раньше сотрудничавший с Ermenegildo Zegna. С этого момента в ассортименте присутствуют не только дорогие костюмы, но и «современная женственная» одежда, а также дорогие материалы, такие как кожа и замша. Все это существенно повысило статус Reiss в мире моды. В коллекцию весна-лето 2018 вошли удобные платья, непринужденные костюмы и вязаные вещи свободного покроя приглушенных оттенков. Славные дни строгих деловых костюмов давно миновали, и в этом сезоне их окончательно вытеснили пастельные оттенки и мягкие ткани. Современный минимализм лежит в основе и мужской, и женской коллекций Reiss. Благодаря нейтральной палитре базовые вещи не кричат «посмотрите на меня», а шепотом рассказывают об элегантном стиле. Акцентами в коллекции стали вечерние платья и лаконичные кожаные сумки – все по справедливой цене, как и всегда у Reiss. Ткани высшего качества вот уже 10 лет привлекают внимание к коллекциям Reiss, и то же самое можно уверенно сказать про Whistles. В 2008 году Джейн Шефердсон, бывший бренддиректор Topshop, возглавила марку Whistles и за восемь лет

превратила ее в узнаваемый бренд. Она покинула свой пост в 2016, но бренд продолжает развиваться и выпускать ориентированные на модные тренды коллекции. Коллекцию весна-лето 2018 венчает серия Limited Edition – подборка качественных вещей, которые могли бы блистать на миланских подиумах, но на самом деле созданы в студии на северо-западе Лондона. Тренч из мягкой замши, платья из синего шелка и плетеные аксессуары органично впишутся в любой гардероб. Превосходные ткани и продуманный дизайн этих вещей подчеркивают взвешенность позиции между масс-маркетом и дорогим дизайнерским сегментом. Так называемый «средний рынок» в сфере ретейла помогает осознанно собирать стильный гардероб при разумных затратах. Бренды этого уровня достойны особого внимания, поскольку предлагают множество вариантов на любой вкус – от консервативных до экспериментальных, от свадебных до деловых и повседневных.
