Gifts for fashion victims
LF Markey Harley Top Maple (pictured above)
LF Markey’s clothes are perfect for life in London now: colourful enough to cut through lockdown blues, comfy enough to lounge about in and, most importantly, extremely I’m A Stoke Newington Creative chic.

LF Markey was started by a Central Saint Martins grad who has lived in London for nearly 20 years. You can find the shop in Dalston if you’d like.
