Wild
Swans - Chiswick branch
|

Wild Swans, with one of the best selections of Scandinavian Fashion
in London, has now opened a sister shop in Cross Street, Islington, less than
one year after opening in Devonshire Road, Chiswick. The Danish owner,
Caroline van Luthje, chose both locations because of the village feel, individuality
and small communities that both streets carry in abundance. The Islington shop
has a bright, soothing ambience that reflects contemporary Scandinavian style
and sensibility, and people come from all over North London and even further to
visit Wild Swans. The name comes from the fairytale by Hans Christian Andersen's
"The Wild Swans" and perfectly describes the range of Designers as well
as the customers "Beautiful, gracious birds with a bit of an edge." The
selection of labels is constantly evolving, a mix of up and coming Designers,
with the more established ones. The designs range from romantic to funky and feminine,
contrasting with the masculine, allowing for greater individual expression. The
labels include Malene Birger, the award winning Danish Designer, Day
Birger et Mikkelsen, The feminine Stella Nova, funky Rutzou,
girly Muus, the quirky Norwegian Maggie Wonka and affordable CCDK.
Other brands are Tara Jarmon, American Vintage and Mauvette Philips. Wild
Swans also has a great range of shoes and boots for A/W from Bili Bi's
classic riding boots, Sofie Schnoor's funky boots and shoes and Ilse
Jacobsen's practical but trendy wellies. In Jewellery you will find beautiful
contemporary pieces from Danish Julie Sandlau and Jane Konig and
Swedish Promise, all with very different styles to suit any occasion and
budget. Email
