Shopping/markets
For over two centuries, Savile Row has been the address most associated with fine British menswear, where bespoke tailors still cut and hand-stitch suits to individual clients in workshops largely unchanged in spirit despite the surrounding city's transformation. Its notably higher hidden-gem and culture scores relative to its must-see rating suggest this is a street more appreciated by those with a specific interest in fashion history than by casual passersby. Reviewers describe it as worth the visit particularly for anyone interested in British fashion heritage, even as some note that the old guard of tailors has thinned over the years. It rewards a slower walk and a bit of window-gazing into tailoring ateliers rather than casual shopping.
