London’s Best-Kept Fashion Secret

INTRODUCTION

Fonthill Road Fashion Village Fonthill Road Fashion Village, at the heart of Finsbury Park in the London Borough of Islington, is unlike any other shopping district you have visited before. It is lined with independent fashion retail boutiques and wholesalers where you will find an incredible range of products that reflect London’s status as a hotbed of fashion creativity and cultural diversity.

For those who know about the Fonthill Road Fashion Village, every occasion, from weddings and proms to milestone birthdays and festive parties, offers an opportunity to uncover West End quality products at unbelievable prices.

For those not in the know, Fonthill Road Fashion Village remains London’s best kept fashion secret.

This lookbook has been developed by the Fonthill Road Fashion Village traders, with support from Islington Council, to share the magic of the area with shoppers in London and beyond who love to find high quality bargains or unique fashion pieces that you can’t find in high street chains. We brought together council officers, volunteer models from the community, fantastic traders from the Fonthill Road Fashion Village and an incredible creative team led by Courtney Mitchell to put together a showcase of what you will find in the Fonthill Road Fashion Village.
