London's most famous department store is an enduring
landmark of quirks and pretensions - not least its dra-
conian dress code (no clothing revealing intimate parts
of the the body; no backpacks to be worn on backs, etc).
It's notable for its Art Nouveau tiled food hall, its Dodi
& Di statue, the huge toy department and its range of
designer labels.

Corsetières to HM the Queen, if that can be counted as a recommendation, this store
stocks a wide range of beautiful lingerie and swimwear, with designer names as well as
its own range, for all shapes and sizes. The personal fitting service is deemed to be Lon-
don's best.
