FashionBeans x Regent Street: Shopping Guide


London’s Premier Shopping Destination

Boasting impressive Beaux Arts architecture, well-curated stores from covetable brands and a buzz unrivalled by any other shopping district in the British capital, London’s Regent Street is the very definition of a shopping destination. Home to flagships from some of the biggest names in both British and international fashion, the Regent St. area has long been a must-visit for London-bound tourists eager to bag themselves something exceptional. In the run up to last week’s London Collections: Men Autumn/Winter 2015 event, we hit the streets to see the style that Regent Street and its shoppers had to offer.

Key Regent Street Stores

Despite its official status as a high street, Regent Street doesn’t skimp when it comes to selection. Unlike other London high streets, this area features fashion’s heavyweights nestled comfortably alongside serious luxury players. For those who like their branding bold, there’s Armani Exchange, Calvin Klein Jeans and BOSS, while those who prefer pared-back and minimal will appreciate the offering available at the likes of Banana Republic, Reiss and COS – ideal for building a timeless and versatile capsule wardrobe. Also resident are storied British labels Burberry and Hunter. The former’s tech-heavy Regent Street flagship opened to much fanfare in September 2012 and continues to provide its signature immersive retail experience (something every lover of fashion should experience, even if you don’t buy anything), while Hunter’s new 5300 sq ft store was opened in November of last year and is spearheading an all-new rejuvenated aesthetic under the creative directorship of noted branding expert Alasdhair Willis:
