Every year, Camden Market (North London) attracts a wide range of visitors of all ages and backgrounds, focusing on alternative leather and vintage clothing at convenient price.

Brick Lane Market (London East), attracts residents and visitors for classic style clothing and accessories. Here you can find unique handcrafted and vintage products, antiques, but also elegant leather garments and bags, as well as second-hand resale.

Brick Lane Market’s target only represents 6% of British people, also due to restricted opening hours and days.

While Portobello Road Market’s week-ends only influence 7% of British people, it is the most favourite street-market for Italian tourists!
