Take a tour of Blitz – London's first vintage department store

If you've got a passion for the past, prepare to loosen your purse strings, as you step into Blitz – London's first vintage department store which opens on August 5 2011. As usual, Time Out's Shopping editor Dan Jones was first over the threshold, but you can take a look too with our exclusive video. General manager John Howlin gave us a sneak peek at the shop's stylish stock, including vintage Swatch watches, designer frocks, upcycled furniture and old-school Levi's. Plus, find out about Blitz's cafe, complete with Italian coffee served from half a stretched Fiat.
