August Wanderlust
Set out for adventure with The Royal Exchange. Travel in style with our pick of the best luxury items and enjoy the ultimate taste of summer: from Provence rosé to platters of fruits de mer.
August is the month of wanderlust — when you meet the world face to face. So our luxury shopping guide in this edition is dedicated to the art of travel: items which are perfect to take with you on your journeys, and that celebrate the joy of the voyage. So whether you’re trekking the Alps, hitting the high streets or easing into continental cafe culture, we’ll help you pack your bags in style.
Our dining establishments are celebrating the season, too, by offering visitors the true taste of summer. Ladurée launches its collab with Chateau d’Estoublon’s renowned vintage Roseblood, a delicate rośe wine that embodies Provence’s Alpilles and makes for a perfect (and indulgent) pairing with the patisserie’s macarons. Then, head from the mountain to the ocean to discover The Libertine’s new fruits de mer — a seafood platter like no other.
Wake up to Rosslyn, our newest coffee shop, and take the time to explore the Watchfinder Summer Collection: with highlights that include Rolex, Vacheron Constantin and Bremont. Finally, we are waving goodbye — and saying hello! — to the fabulous GOFF COURTNEY as the brand leaves No.1 for No. 29 at The Royal Exchange. The new shop and gallery will showcase the label’s work in a whole new light — including a modernist architectural hanging mechanism for its unique, one-of-a-kind pieces.
