A guide to London's burgeoning vintage scene. It covers over 200 budget and luxury attractions, from the East End hotspots of hyper-cool Hoxton and Shoreditch to the eccentric emporia of the West End, as well as the pick of London's markets and the classiest vintage outlets north and south of the centre, all marked on full-colour maps.
Culture, history and contemporary insights with a critical edge form the backbone of these guides * The Daily Mail *
