When you're tired of London, you're tired of life, as Samuel Johnson
(almost) said. Post-pandemic and post-jubilee, London is getting its mojo
back – and we love to see it. So here's our love letter to the capital, with
a reminder of its most iconic
addresses (I bet you haven't visited them all), best
hotels for a romantic weekend, exciting new
developments, and the homes
that have caught our eye. There's also Peter
Griffiths's excellent essay on why brands need London just as much
as the city needs them, and the chance
to win a private consultation and bespoke frames designed by the
legendary Tom Davies.

Q&A
with... Mary Elizabeth Rankin of Savile
Row
Favourite
British brand? All the Savile Row tailors and
shops. Each has their unique style and the level of craftsmanship allows the
customer to bring home something truly one-of-a-kind. Not to mention the
inherent sustainability of bespoke tailoring. Hero? Sir David
Attenborough. I admire his dedication to raising awareness around
environmental issues. Weekend? The Cotswolds. I love spending time in
the chocolate-box villages, going on long walks with my family and dog, and
visiting as many pubs as possible. Meal? Sunday roast and
sticky toffee pudding. Preferably at The Bull & Last near Hampstead
Heath if I can get a table. Shop? Paxton &
Whitfield. Undiscovered gem? The American Bar at The
Stafford London. Idiosyncrasy? No other nation queues quite like
the British – and I love it. Band? The Beatles. Car? Land
Rover Series II Defender. I recently saw a stunning, fully converted
electric one (by Everatti) at the Concours on Savile Row. Book? Notes from a
Small Island by Bill Bryson. As a native North American
living several years here in the UK, I identify with many of his
observations. It’s light-hearted and I often find myself laughing aloud.
Mary Elizabeth Rankin is the Marketing &
Community Director at The Pollen Estate, majority owner of Savile
Row
