Friday Photos: London's Fashion Destinations

From Vivienne Westwood's punk aesthetic to the bespoke tailoring of Savile Row, London has a far reaching history as fashion capital, and with London Fashion Week kicking off today, we thought Friday Photos could do with some retail therapy. Whether you shop in Cyberdog, on Carnaby Street, or prefer perusing the markets and fabric stalls of the East End, the city caters for a broad range of styles.
