Spitafields, Shoreditch, Hoxton Rock Chic

Spitalfields a mixture of culture, beer and high couture.

Our new recent tour of Spitafields, Shoreditch and Hoxton unravelled a cauldron of history, unique shops and amazing people!

In a small intense area of the East End of London the wealth of talent in designers is in abundance. The epic Alexander McQueen had his first studio in Hoxton Square and what a transformation this area has had over the years.

 

We encountered Mast Brothers who remain an ambassador of the coffee bean to bar chocolate manufacturers movement by educating the country about high quality chocolate by making it hip, beautiful and delectable and certainly the students enjoyed the Sea Salt tasters.

Celestine 11 an individual boutique where Fashion students poured over Clair Barrow’s SS 15 collection with admiration and marvelled at the designs of Luis Nascimento.

Truman Brewery steeped in history dating back to the 17th century and in 2015 Donatella Versace and Anthony Vaccarello launched the latest Versus Versace collection.

We ended in the historical part of Spitafileds with a story of a Silk Mantua dress
