London's spectrum of style

"When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford." - Samuel Johnson, poet

He may have been British (so perhaps a little bit biased!), but we couldn't agree more with the iconic Mr Johnson.

London is a favourite destination of the Artesano team. We love how the city evolves on every visit - with new attractions, exhibitions and cultural experiences around every corner.

It's always a pleasure wandering the historic streets of central London, appreciating its eclectic neighbourhoods - from the old-world charm of Mayfair, to the urban edge of Soho and the hipster haven of Shoreditch.

London is a true city of the world and, despite the political changes currently taking place, we always appreciate its international energy.

The famous sense of British style is another reason we never tire of London. An afternoon of people-watching will show you a gentleman in a Savile Row suit one moment, and a punk-rocker the next.

Wherever a Londoner is placed on the style spectrum, we love that Panama hats are always a staple in their wardrobes.

Crisp and stylish for a sartorial look, or creative and adventurous with streetwear, it's always great to see Artesano's classic and contemporary designs joining London's fashion ranks.
