With around 100 independent shops dedicated to fashion, Fonthill Road has something for every taste and occasion. “It’s amazing how far the reputation of the area travels,” says Nasser Jeeb, owner of Novo Moda. “I have customers that regularly come from Manchester, Birmingham and even as a far as Scotland. Our strengths lie in the experience we can give to our customers.”
Stroud Green Road boasts an array of unique independent shops. From vintage and mid-century homewares at Mosey Home, beautiful gifts at the Pretty Shiny Shop, to fashion bargains for a good cause from the Crisis charity shop.
Islington Council has teamed up with myvirtualneighbourhood.com to launch Shop Local Islington, an online directory to help residents find independent shops, cafes, pubs, restaurants, markets and service providers in the borough.
