I’m usually the most oblivious person to trends and news, my dose of what’s going on in the world is most likely to be gleaned from a Thursday or Friday night flip through The Evening Standard.

Carnaby Street – it’s still there and thriving decades on from the swinging sixties. And in among the shops and bars, why not stop by the Carnaby Book Exchange? Bring a book and swap it for one of the vast range of titles curated by MA Fashion Curation students at London College of Fashion.
