Liberty is a London icon. It’s a department store steeped in history, featuring six floors of luxury female fashion, emerging menswear designers, homeware, interior accessories and a haberdashery stocked with the much-loved Liberty fabric. As well as all that, Maria Tash (piercer to everyone who’s anyone) has her own parlour inside and there’s a small but very well-stocked food and drink hall too. So if you’re making a trip south of Oxford Street, you have to pay Liberty a visit and wander through the jumble of wood-panelled rooms – yes, even if you’ve been a hundred times before.
