Duke Of York Square

Nestled elegantly between Sloane Ranger haven that is Peter Jones and the handsome Saatchi gallery, the Duke of York Square offers one of London's chicest open air shopping centre experiences. Here you can stock up on smart threads at one of Europe biggest Zara's, get lost in floral-patterned crockery at Cath Kidston or pick up beauty essentials at Liz Earle. Feeling like you need a beauty boost? Have your hair blow-dried at Kate Middleton's favourite salon, Richard Ward or head to the brilliant Taschen shop, where you'll find a range of glossy art and photography books. In the summer, eating al fresco here, surrounded by a sea of Tod's loafer-clad blondes, feels distinctly Chelsea.
